Andrea LeBeau, LSCSW

Andrea LeBeau is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LSCSW) practicing in Kansas who brings seven years of therapy experience and a background in child welfare to her clinical work. She earned her social work degree from the University of Kansas in 2017 and has focused much of her career on supporting families and children involved with the child welfare and foster care systems. Throughout her practice she has worked with a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation, self-harm, self-esteem struggles, truancy, family dynamics, domestic violence, and post-traumatic stress.

Much of Andrea's work has centered on family-based and individual therapy with an emphasis on keeping families safely together when possible. She has also provided crisis counseling during her time with the National Suicide Hotline, and she currently supervises therapists who deliver services to families in foster care. Her clinical approach draws on several evidence-informed modalities - including client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, narrative approaches, psychodynamic concepts, solution-focused strategies, and trauma-focused interventions - combining techniques to fit the needs and goals of each person or family.

Andrea's counseling style is grounded in respect and collaboration; she takes a client-focused stance and works with empathy while remaining direct and transparent when needed. She emphasizes dignity, clear communication, and positive feedback as part of building a strong therapeutic relationship. Her experience in both front-line therapy and supervision informs a practical, strengths-oriented approach to challenges related to parenting, attachment and adoption concerns, blended families, caregiver stress, substance use, eating and body image issues, grief, anger, ADHD, and other life changes.
