Andrea Letts Therapy welcomes you to its California practice, steadfast in the belief that our actions, even those deemed problematic, are typically learned responses aimed at fulfilling our needs. Passionate about her principles, Andrea does not categorize her clients into compilations of symptoms. Instead, she recognizes the human journey each individual undertakes, colored by personal conditioning and experiences navigating life's rewards and challenges. Her role as your therapist is not merely to treat you, but to accompany you on your life journey, helping you navigate various paths. She acknowledges that emotions such as fear, sadness, frustration, or hopelessness may have brought you to her virtual doorstep, but she also believes that your healing journey hinges on fostering a strong client-therapist bond.

As a licensed Clinical Social Worker and certified EMDR therapist, Andrea emphasizes the essence of individualized care, acknowledging that each client’s needs and perceptions could vary from one session to another. She does more than just guide you to cope with personal challenges—she strives to help you live a meaningful life. With her extensive experience in trauma-focused interventions, Andrea specializes in varying scales of trauma, developing an understanding of emotional pain through her own experiences as a trauma survivor.
