About Andria

Andria Kadell is a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) practicing in Michigan with three years of clinical experience. She works with adults and teens who are coping with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, family tensions, low self-esteem, and major life changes. Her profile also notes work with attachment issues, caregiver stress, chronic pain or illness, communication problems, social anxiety and phobia, and questions about life purpose.

She uses straightforward methods in session. Andria draws often from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. She also uses mindfulness practices and Dialectical Behavior Therapy tools to help manage strong emotions and reduce reactivity.

In addition, she applies Strengths-Based, Narrative, and Adventure Therapy skills to notice what clients already do well and to map different paths forward. Conversations focus on small, concrete steps clients can try between sessions. Andria helps people notice patterns, test new approaches, and decide what matters next.

Sessions aim to produce clear short-term goals alongside longer-term direction. The therapist encourages practical experiments, communication skills practice, and strategies for coping with chronic health challenges or caregiver demands. Work on life purpose is approached as figuring out values and next steps rather than offering definitive answers.

She frames therapy as a collaborative process. People meet to set goals, try tools in everyday life, and adjust their plan as needed. The description here reflects her stated methods and areas of focus.

Approaches for online work and practical fit

Andria commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness in her practice. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and test different behaviors to see what changes. Mindfulness practices teach simple attention and breathing skills to reduce overwhelm and increase focus, which can help with anxiety and stress.

She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy tools to build emotion regulation and coping skills, and on Narrative and Strengths-Based techniques to identify values and existing resources. Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. She collaborates with each person to decide which methods match their needs, goals, and preferences rather than applying a single method from the start.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm which formats are offered before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Therapists can adapt exercises, communication skills practice, and mindfulness work to an online setting so people can try tools in their everyday life.
