About Andrew

Andrew Scarbrough is a licensed psychologist in Minnesota with 16 years of experience. He helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, relationship tensions, trauma and abuse, anger, and ADHD. He speaks English and works with adults seeking clearer coping skills and steadier daily routines.

Andrew uses a mix of evidence-based therapeutic techniques that fit each person's needs. He draws on cognitive-behavioral ideas to address unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and uses psychodynamic and person-centered perspectives to understand long-standing patterns. Sessions focus on practical steps while also looking at the background of current problems.

People often come with concerns such as abandonment, family of origin issues, communication problems, or substance use. He also supports those dealing with impulsivity, hoarding, guilt and shame, and difficulties related to autism or personality challenges. The work aims to reduce distress and build clearer ways of managing daily life.

Andrew describes his approach as collaborative and adaptive. He and the client decide which strategies to try based on preferences and motivation for change. That might mean learning new behavioral skills one week and looking at deeper relationship patterns the next.

Sessions are organized to fit practical needs and goals. Before beginning, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to therapist availability by selecting the Start Therapy button.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Andrew blends cognitive-behavioral methods with psychodynamic and person-centered perspectives. Cognitive-behavioral ideas focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and improve daily functioning. Psychodynamic elements look at how past relationships shape current patterns and help uncover repeating themes. Person-centered elements prioritize the client's perspective and values, making room for the client's goals to guide the process.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose techniques that match their needs, goals, and motivation. That might mean emphasizing skills practice for immediate coping or spending more time examining relationship history to shift long-term patterns.

The practical benefits of online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life. Online work can reduce travel time, allow quicker scheduling around work or school, and support steady check-ins during periods of stress.
