About Andra

Andra Blackheart is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in Florida with five years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people who feel disconnected from themselves after big life changes, traumatic events, or new diagnoses. She also helps people who want stronger bonds with friends or partners and clearer direction in their lives.

Her work often centers on relationship concerns, stress, anxiety, mood struggles, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem.

Background and approach

Andra also supports people navigating ADHD, career questions, and questions about identity and sexuality. She offers both coaching and therapeutic approaches depending on what a person needs. In sessions she uses direct, practical conversation.

She helps people notice what already works for them, and then tries small, manageable steps to build new patterns. Hands-on tools from cognitive behavioral ideas and mindfulness are mixed with a respectful, client-centered stance that follows the person’s pace. Andra is familiar with trauma-related difficulties and attachment questions, and she talks through coping strategies and communication skills.

She also works with people who identify as neurodivergent and those exploring alternative relationship and sexual cultures. Her goal is to help clients use their strengths and supports so therapy becomes less needed over time. People who contact her will find clear guidance about next steps.

Sessions are offered in English and conducted online by phone, video, chat, or text messaging. Prospective clients begin by completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a session.

Approaches and what online therapy can look like

Client-Centered Therapy puts the person's experience front and center. The therapist listens closely, follows the client's lead, and helps people name what matters to them so they can make clearer choices. This style is helpful for people who need a space to sort out identity, values, or relationship goals.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real-life experiments. It offers short-term skills for anxiety, mood struggles, and stress by teaching practical ways to change thinking and behavior.

Mindfulness Therapy adds simple attention skills to reduce overwhelm and improve focus. It helps people notice bodily signals and thought patterns, which can be useful for stress, anxiety, and concentration challenges often experienced alongside ADHD.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try methods that fit the person's needs, and adjust course when something isn't working. That collaborative process helps shape the plan over time.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video suits deeper conversations and nonverbal cues, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, chat or text work well for brief check-ins or when typing helps organize thoughts. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to keep momentum between appointments.
