Andrea Greenberg, LCSW

Andrea Greenberg is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Connecticut with 31 years of clinical experience. She focuses on adults in midlife who are facing major life changes and want deeper emotional connection with themselves. Andrea often meets people who are dealing with long‑standing trauma, patterns from childhood, or the lingering effects of abusive relationships that affect work and relationships today.

Her manner is direct and nurturing. Sessions combine clear guidance with empathetic listening so clients can both be supported and challenged to take action. She encourages practical steps such as prioritizing self-care, building new routines, and practicing self-compassion.

Andrea uses a mix of therapy approaches tailored to each person. She draws on attachment-based ideas to help people understand relationship patterns. She uses eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, known as EMDR, for trauma processing. Mindfulness practices and client-centered conversation are woven into work on stress, anxiety, grief, and life transitions.

Clients who want focused work and measurable shifts tend to connect with her style. She aims to shorten the time people feel stuck by combining insight with concrete skills and homework between sessions. Progress often includes clearer boundaries, improved emotional regulation, and stronger self-worth.

Andrea meets people where they are and works collaboratively to set goals. She asks for commitment to the process and offers steady guidance as people move through change and recovery.

How her approaches translate to online care

Andrea commonly blends attachment-based work and EMDR with client-centered conversation. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people try new ways of relating. EMDR is a trauma-focused method that uses guided processing to reduce the intensity of distressing memories and related triggers. Client-centered therapy prioritizes the person's own goals and moves at their pace while offering reflective listening and practical suggestions.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods to try based on symptoms, history, and what the client hopes to change. That collaborative planning continues as progress unfolds and goals shift.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by reducing travel and allowing meetings from a convenient location. It can also allow for shorter check-ins, use of audio-only when needed, or scheduling around work and caregiving demands. Many people find online sessions helpful for maintaining continuity of care during major life transitions.
