I highly recommend Andrea!. I started therapy with Andrea about 5 months ago, and have noticed a significant change in the way I approach my personal and professional life. She is a strong guide and mentor, and always shows great care and concern for her clients.

A few more things that really stand out to me about Andrea are: her honesty, flexibility with scheduling (I work long hours and she was able to meet me late at night or on the weekends), contactability (through email, phone, text, etc)., and her passion for her job. I also enjoyed her approach regarding the counseling process in general. I was nervous (and hesitant) to begin counseling, but after meeting her for the first time, I knew she was a great person and she instantly gained my trust.

I highly recommend Andrea for anyone who is looking for a counselor who truly cares about her clients!

Andrea Schrage is an exceptional therapist. I very rarely write reviews but want to pay forward the huge favor my friends gave me years ago in recommending Andrea Schrage. Two different friends recommended Andrea and, though I felt very reluctant to try therapy again at the time, I am eternally grateful that I did. I had had very limited experience with going to therapy prior to that, and had found the two therapists I tried were not very insightful or helpful. Seeing Andrea was a completely different experience. Her warmth, honesty and insight came through right away. She did an amazing job, guiding me and giving me exactly what I needed week to week.

When I think about the life I could be living -- still trudging through each day carrying old burdens and hurts -- I am filled with gratitude that I made the decision to seek therapy. More than that, I am grateful to have found a therapist as skilled and compassionate as Andrea. It made all the difference in the world.

I trust Andrea. When looking for a therapist, you want someone who is easy to talk with, compassionate and has a depth of experience. I find this in Andrea and know that you will too!

Highly Recommended. I’ve known Andrea for several years now and was impressed from day one with her warmth, kindness, compassion and insight. She is caring, perceptive and engaged as a therapist. Andrea has a truly holistic approach to therapy, combining traditional talk therapy with mindfulness and a body-focused approach. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her.

Real Therapy. It was Andrea's warmth, honesty, compassion and strength that spoke to me loud and clear when I first spoke to her on the phone.

When I started to work with her, she accepted me just the way I was. As time went on, I began to really want healing. Andrea helped me understand patterns in my life, explore what I had stuffed away, and accept myself more fully.

She was always right there with me, showing me how I could find out what I was feeling in my body. She never hesitated to be real with me, try new approaches, or share from her life when it would help me see what was going on.

Compassionate Therapist. I have seen how working with Andrea can produce dramatic changes for the better in your life. Two of my friends recommended her as an outstanding counselor, and I can vouch that she is compassionate and insightful.
