About Andrea
Andrea LeBeau is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LSCSW) based in Kansas who helps people manage stress, anger, anxiety, and grief. She draws on seven years of experience in therapy and child welfare to support people facing family strain, parenting challenges, and life changes. Her approach is straightforward and respectful.
She listens first, then offers direct feedback when it helps. Sessions focus on practical steps people can try between meetings, not only on talking about problems.
Background and approach
Andrea has spent much of her career working in child welfare and supporting families involved with foster care. She has provided both individual and family-based therapy and has experience with domestic violence, trauma, suicide prevention, and post-traumatic stress. She also has experience supervising other therapists who serve families in foster care.
She blends client-centered methods with cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and narrative work. That mix lets her tailor sessions to each person’s needs, whether coping with depression, managing impulses, or rebuilding self-esteem. In sessions she aims to build a trusting relationship quickly.
She offers clear, compassionate guidance and practical coping tools. Messages can be sent between visits and she generally responds promptly to ongoing questions or check-ins.

Combining practical approaches with online access
Andrea commonly uses Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to guide online work. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely and building a respectful relationship so people feel heard and understood; it helps when someone needs acceptance and a place to sort through feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at thoughts and behaviors and offers concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns, which is useful for anxiety, anger, and depression.Finding the right approach is a team effort. She will collaborate with the client to decide which methods match their goals and preferences, adjusting strategies as progress is made. The focus is on practical goals and tools the client can try between sessions.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and focused skill practice. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging make it easier to send quick updates or ask questions between sessions. These options aim to make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into a busy life.
