Dr. Andrea Shields, Ph.D., LMFT Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist

The therapy offered: Individuals, Families & Couples

Individual Therapy

I provide individual therapy services for children aged 9 and above, adolescents, and adults. My therapeutic approach addresses a wide range of concerns such as anxiety, behavioral challenges, depression, parenting difficulties, school-related issues, and building self-confidence.

My goal is to equip clients with practical skills that they can apply in their everyday lives, fostering a more enriching relationship with themselves and facilitating deeper connections with others.

** If you have scheduled an appointment for a minor child (under 18), a parent or guardian must attend sessions for legal reasons, billing reasons, and to assist in the therapy.

Families & Couples

Individual Therapy

I find fulfillment in assisting families in fostering cooperation, compassion, and understanding, which are crucial elements for supporting the family unit to function, communicate effectively, and evolve together. Additionally, I specialize in working with couples in diverse relationship dynamics.

In couples' sessions, our focus is on reinstating open and honest communication, dismantling destructive patterns, and navigating the various phases of a relationship. My aim is to equip couples with practical skills that they can apply in their daily lives, promoting a more satisfying relationship and fostering deeper connections.

I am a Certified Gottman Method Couples Training. I am a member of the American Association of Marriage & Family Therapists and the American Psychological Association.
