About Andrew

Andrew Newhouse is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) with 14 years of clinical experience. He helps people facing depression, anxiety, substance use concerns, grief, and relationship strain. He aims to create an approachable space where straightforward conversations lead to practical steps forward.

He draws on personal experience with loss to inform his work. That early experience led him to seek therapy and later to pursue a career helping others. His background includes long-term work with people coping with trauma, mood concerns, and addictions.

In sessions he keeps the focus on what matters most to the client. He uses clear, goal-focused conversations to identify small changes that can ease day-to-day stress. He also addresses family and interpersonal patterns that contribute to ongoing problems.

Andrew integrates several therapeutic styles to match each person's needs. He uses client-centered methods to build rapport and understand experience. He incorporates cognitive behavioral tools to spot unhelpful thinking and to try new behaviors. He also draws on solution-focused and trauma-informed techniques when those fit the client's goals.

Clients can expect calm, direct guidance and practical options to try between sessions. He practices in Hawaii and holds LMFT credentials for work in clinical settings. To start, he asks people to describe their concerns and goals so together they can choose what to work on.

How his approaches shape online work

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding your experience. The therapist follows your lead, reflects your concerns, and helps you set priorities for change. This approach is useful when someone needs a supportive space to sort feelings and choices.

Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect. It uses practical exercises to test unhelpful thinking and try new actions. People often use CBT for depression, anxiety, and managing stress and impulsive behaviors.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together you decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.

If you plan to use online sessions, confirm the exact formats offered before booking since the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also lets people continue care when life changes or travel would otherwise interrupt progress.
