Andrea Greenberg, LCSW

Andrea Greenberg is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), a professional credential that authorizes clinical social work practice in Connecticut, with more than 31 years of experience supporting adults through major life shifts. She concentrates on work with midlife clients, typically between ages 32 and 75, who are seeking deeper emotional connection with themselves while navigating transitions in relationships, careers, and personal identity.

Her practice frequently addresses Complex PTSD, narcissistic abuse, childhood trauma, and neglect, and she helps clients recognize how longstanding patterns and trauma responses continue to affect self-worth and adult relationships. Andrea pairs a direct therapeutic style with empathetic, nurturing support, creating a nonjudgmental environment where clients are invited to be fully seen and to take responsibility for their own healing.

Andrea draws from a range of evidence-based approaches, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), motivational interviewing, EMDR, Internal Family Systems, mindfulness practices, and whole-body wellness strategies. She focuses on helping clients move beyond surface-level talk toward meaningful, lasting change when clients are ready to engage in the work.

Bringing decades of clinical experience and practical insight, Andrea meets each person where they are and emphasizes accountability, self-care, self-love, and self-compassion as foundations for lasting progress.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Andrea uses Attachment-Based Therapy to explore how early bonds and relationship patterns influence current connections. This approach looks at attachment styles and helps people understand and change patterns that affect intimacy, trust, and communication.

She also integrates Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) for clients processing traumatic memories and intense emotional reactions. EMDR is a structured method used by therapists to help reduce the emotional charge of traumatic experiences and support trauma recovery.

Mindfulness Therapy is woven into sessions to help clients build present-moment awareness, reduce reactivity, and develop practical skills for managing stress and difficult emotions. These practices are often combined with other evidence-based strategies to address anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Andrea works collaboratively with each person to determine what fits best based on needs, goals, and preferences. Together they adjust methods as progress unfolds to ensure the work feels aligned and effective.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can happen by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to access consistent care from different locations. For many people, this range of options improves accessibility and supports steady progress over time.
