Andrea Alli , LCMHC

Andrea Alli is a Vermont-based Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) with 10 years of professional experience supporting people through a wide range of challenges. She has worked extensively with stress and anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, depression, relationship concerns, sleep difficulties, self-esteem issues, life transitions, obsessions and compulsions, and phobias.

Andrea brings a respectful, sensitive, and compassionate approach to therapy, beginning by identifying each person’s needs, strengths, and capabilities. She emphasizes collaboration and practical strategies, helping clients build on what already serves them while addressing obstacles that interfere with daily life and relationships.

Her clinical practice draws on client-centered principles alongside trauma-informed tools such as EMDR and mindfulness-informed techniques, as well as somatic and trauma-focused methods when appropriate. Andrea aims to provide steady support for processing difficult experiences, developing coping skills, and moving toward meaningful change.

She welcomes prospective clients who are seeking attentive, strengths-based care and looks forward to meeting people ready to explore their concerns and goals.

Online Approaches for Trauma, Anxiety, and Healing

Andrea integrates client-centered work with targeted trauma and mindfulness techniques to provide thoughtful online care. Client-Centered Therapy centers on the client's perspective and strengths, offering a collaborative environment where the therapist listens, reflects, and helps clarify goals and values - this approach is well suited to people seeking empathetic, individualized support for relationship strains, self-esteem issues, or life changes.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is used to help people process distressing memories and reduce the intensity of painful sensations associated with trauma. In an online format, EMDR protocols are adapted so that licensed professionals can guide clients through structured processing and resource-building work.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and grounding practices that can reduce reactivity to stress and support better sleep, anxiety management, and emotional regulation. Andrea uses these techniques alongside other trauma-informed and somatic options when they fit a client's needs.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Andrea works with each person to assess needs, preferences, and goals, adjusting techniques over time to find what helps most. Online sessions - whether by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - offer flexibility for scheduling, reduce travel barriers, and make it easier to maintain consistent care while balancing everyday responsibilities.
