Andrea Deases, LPC

Andrea Deases is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who holds a Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Texas at Tyler. She has practiced counseling in Texas across a range of settings, bringing experience from crisis centers to community counseling programs. In crisis work she supported people facing severe depressive episodes, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia, and in community settings she worked with children, teens, and families to strengthen communication, set healthy boundaries, and create more stable home environments.

Andrea has also supported adults through common concerns such as anxiety, life transitions, loss, depression, and low self-esteem, and she welcomes clients seeking general personal growth even when there is not a single presenting issue. Her style centers on listening closely to each person’s story, collaborating to set meaningful goals, and helping clients identify what can be changed in their responses and perspectives while acknowledging factors outside their control.

She uses an integrative approach that draws on evidence-based methods including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), mindfulness therapy, narrative therapy, solution-focused techniques, trauma-focused therapy, and client-centered methods. Andrea aims to create a respectful, goal-oriented partnership that supports practical skills development and long-term wellbeing.
