About Andrew
Andrew Breen, LMSW, helps people manage stress, anxiety, anger, depression, and the everyday strains of life. He listens for what matters to each person and focuses on practical steps they can try between sessions. He meets people where they are and works to build confidence and motivation one step at a time.
With 13 years of clinical experience in Michigan, Andrew draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide his work.
Background and approach
He values a collaborative approach and treats the person, not just the problem. Sessions emphasize clear goals, small experiments, and skills that can be used right away. Clients often come for help with relationship tensions, parenting challenges, addiction concerns, ADHD, grief, and career stress.
Andrew also supports people facing trauma, attachment issues, adoption or foster care questions, and emotional struggles related to medical or life changes. He listens for patterns that keep problems stuck and helps people try new ways of responding. Andrew frames each plan around the individual’s strengths and priorities.
He uses straightforward language and practical exercises rather than jargon. Progress is measured in real-life changes like improved routines, calmer reactions, or steadier mood. People work with him through video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging.
Sessions follow a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. He provides services in English for adults based in Michigan and nearby regions.

Practical approaches for online care
Andrew uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that emphasize skills and real-world practice. One common approach focuses on teaching coping and emotion-regulation strategies to reduce reactivity and manage anger, stress, and anxiety in daily life. These skills help people notice triggers and try small changes in how they respond.Another approach centers on structured problem-solving and behavioral techniques to address depression, low motivation, and routine disruptions. This method breaks bigger goals into manageable steps and tests what works in everyday settings.
Finding the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will work collaboratively to figure out which techniques fit the person’s needs, goals, and preferences, and will adjust methods as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options help fit therapy into work, family, and other commitments while keeping a steady connection with a licensed professional.
