Andria Connell earned a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling with a specialization in Trauma and Crises in 2016 and is a licensed mental health clinician in New York State. With six years of clinical experience, she focuses on supporting individuals affected by traumatic events and the emotional consequences that often follow.
She draws on cognitive behavioral therapy tools and techniques to help clients identify and shift thought patterns, emotional responses, and behaviors. Andria has worked with first responders for over three years, bringing practical experience addressing stress and trauma in high-demand roles.
Andria provides therapy through telehealth, offering remote sessions to accommodate clients’ schedules and needs. Her practice centers on guiding people who are struggling toward new perspectives, coping skills, and healthier behaviors.
She also attends to the challenges many face as they readjust to social life after the pandemic, including anxiety, depression, grief, trauma reactions, and emotional dysregulation. Working through these symptoms by processing thoughts and feelings is an important step she emphasizes for healing and improved coping.
Many people wonder whether virtual counseling truly helps. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and navigating life changes, online therapy has been found to be comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person care.
One major benefit is flexibility - clients can choose the mode of connection that suits them best, whether that is video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This flexibility makes it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and maintain continuity of care.
Licensed professionals provide these services, and clients may switch therapists at any time if they need a different fit. For many individuals, remote therapy offers a practical and effective way to address everyday mental health concerns while accommodating personal schedules and preferences.
