Andrea Hare, LSCSW

Andrea Hare is a licensed Kansas therapist who brings four years of clinical experience to helping people navigate complex life challenges. As an LSCSW, which stands for Licensed Specialist Clinical Social Worker, she combines clinical training with a compassionate, practical approach to support clients facing depression, anxiety, relationship concerns, and grief. Andrea has worked with a range of populations, including young adults, women, caregivers, and veterans, and she often supports people during major life transitions.

Her practice focuses on addressing communication barriers, isolation, guilt, shame, and control issues that can complicate recovery and personal growth. Andrea understands the emotional impact of postpartum periods, workplace stress, chronic health conditions, and shifting family dynamics, and she helps clients develop tools to build resilience and healthier patterns. She draws on trauma-informed and client-centered methods to create a space where individuals can explore their experiences without rush.

Andrea aims to walk alongside clients as they identify meaningful goals and practical strategies for managing symptoms and improving daily functioning. She emphasizes collaboration, helping people build sustainable paths toward greater emotional well-being, stronger relationships, and renewed confidence in their ability to cope with life changes.

Therapeutic approaches and online care with Andrea Hare

Andrea draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to guide her online work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and it supports building a values-driven life that can reduce avoidance and increase meaningful action. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and learning practical skills to change them, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Andrea treats that choice as a collaboration. She works with clients to explore which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts techniques over time so therapy remains relevant and effective for each person.

Online sessions through video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging offer flexibility for people managing busy schedules, caregiving responsibilities, health limitations, or geographic constraints. These options make it easier to access consistent support, maintain momentum between sessions, and integrate therapeutic tools into daily life with greater convenience.
