About Andrew

Andrew Perez is a licensed clinical mental health counselor (LCMHC) based in North Carolina with nine years of experience. He brings a practical, human-centered focus to sessions and emphasizes building on what already works in a person’s life. Andrew writes, hikes, and runs in his free time, and uses those everyday interests to connect with clients.

He values clear, direct conversation and steady direction when people are feeling stuck. His background includes work in a jail diversion program for teens, a residential evaluation hospital for children and adults, and community programs for at-risk youth and their families.

Background and approach

Those roles shaped his approach to trauma, behavioral concerns, and complex family situations. He draws on many methods to meet real-world problems rather than following a single formula. In session he focuses on identity, relationships, and daily routines that improve functioning.

He uses ideas from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to notice and change unhelpful thinking. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify values and take action that matters to them. Andrew also uses Client-Centered and Existential ideas to help people make sense of their life story and find meaning in difficult moments.

He tracks progress with measurement-based care so goals stay focused and concrete. The work often combines skill-building with deeper reflection about purpose and role. Clients can expect a collaborative tone: strengths are highlighted, practical routines are built, and habits are rehearsed between sessions.

The focus is on steady changes that fit each person’s life and goals.

Online support

How Andrew’s approaches work online

Andrew uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values. ACT often focuses on simple practices and committed actions that can be worked on between sessions to change how life feels.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is used to identify unhelpful thought patterns and try practical experiments to shift them. This work is hands-on and can include short exercises and thought records that translate well to online formats.

Finding the right way of working is part of the process. Andrew will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, preferences, and day-to-day life. That may mean blending ACT, CBT, and client-centered conversation so the plan stays useful and realistic.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video is useful for deeper conversation and visual cues, phone can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, and messaging fits brief check-ins or coaching-style support. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, keep regular contact between appointments, and practice skills in real time.
