About Andrea
Andrea Drake is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in Idaho. She focuses on helping people who are feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, trauma, identity questions, and self-esteem struggles. Her style is warm and direct, with an aim to help clients find practical ways to feel steadier in daily life.
Andrea uses clear conversation and structured tools to break down big problems into manageable steps. She often mixes evidence-based techniques with mindfulness exercises to help people notice what matters and take small, useful actions. Sessions move at a pace chosen by the client and focus on short-term coping as well as longer-term goals.
In the room she emphasizes collaboration and respect for each person’s experience. She offers an affirming approach for people exploring gender and sexual identity, and she pays attention to how relationships, body image, and shame can influence mood and behavior. Andrea also supports clients dealing with addictions, anger, ADHD, and the fallout of past trauma.
Her background includes six years of clinical work as an LCSW. That experience informs practical strategies for managing panic, impulsivity, and intense emotions. Andrea draws on multiple methods so sessions can be tailored to what the client finds most helpful.
If someone is interested in working on self-esteem, coping with life changes, or reducing ongoing stress, Andrea guides them toward concrete skills and small changes that add up over time.
