About me

I am a licensed Professional Counselor with over 5 years of experience working with children, teens, and their families. Within my clinical career, I have worked with individuals in outpatient settings, as well as those in the juvenile justice and foster care systems. I have worked with clients on managing conflicts; processing and understanding trauma, grief and loss, stress, and exploring who they are and aspire to be. I work with you to facilitate self-discovery, self-acceptance and provide a means toward healing and positive growth. I may also draw on different treatment modalities to guide clients in identifying strengths and developing treatment plans that accomplish their goals. My goal is to assist my clients in working towards fulfilling their goals and regaining a new perspective on life!

Reviews

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Andrea Maxwell. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Teen Counseling might be different.

I always thought teencounseling.com was too good to be true, but this platform, and especially Andrea, have exceeded my needs and expectations. Andrea is by far the best therapist I have ever had. She is a great listener and validates my feelings. Her welcoming, lighthearted demeanor make me very comfortable. I feel as though I am chatting with a friend. I appreciate her availabilty for live sessions and her responsiveness with messages. It’s also nice to have someone who understands living in Michigan, as many of my stressors are environmental. Thank you for everything, Andrea!

Andrea is wonderful! She has a very calming presence and is very helpful in coming up with coping solutions and ideas, as well as offering ways of looking at things that I hadn't thought if before. She goes above and beyond to connect with my son and I appreciate her so very much!
