Andrew Cravey, LMHC

Andrew Cravey is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and trauma and abuse. He works with adults and young adults and supports those navigating relationship strain, LGBTQ+ concerns, addiction, and major life changes. His goal is to help clients leave sessions feeling more capable and resilient. He uses a relational, person-centered style that focuses on building trust. Sessions aim to be practical and down to earth. He listens first, then helps clients notice unhelpful patterns and try small changes between meetings. Andrew blends several approaches to match each person's needs. He draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice painful thoughts without getting stuck on them, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify and alter thinking and behavior patterns that cause distress. He also uses Attachment-Based ideas to look at how past relationships shape current ways of relating. Andrew trained at Palm Beach Atlantic University and holds a Master of Science in Counseling Psychology. He is licensed in Florida as an LMHC and has five years of clinical experience. That background shapes a calm, respectful counseling style. In sessions he focuses on small, achievable steps that build safety and confidence. He encourages clients to set practical goals and practice new skills between appointments. People usually find the work is steady and collaborative, with room to adapt as needs change.

How Andrew’s approaches translate to online work

Andrew commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in his practice. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck on them, and it supports building a life around personal values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and helps people try different responses to reduce distress. Finding the right approach is a team effort. He will talk with each person about goals and preferences and adjust methods as needed. Sessions are collaborative - the therapist and client decide together what tools to try and how to make them fit daily life. Please confirm available session formats before booking, as specific options are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy schedule, shorten travel time, and allow check-ins between obligations. It can also let people use quieter surroundings, avoid being on camera when needed, or choose a shorter phone-style check-in if that better matches a particular day.
