Andrew Roberts , LMFT

Andrew Roberts, LMFT, holds a Master of Arts in Marriage and Family Therapy and a Bachelor of Science in Psychology with a minor in Marriage and Family Studies. He completed his undergraduate studies at Brigham Young University-Idaho and earned his graduate degree at the University of Houston-Clear Lake. Early in his career he worked full time as a clinical therapist at Devereux Advanced Behavioral Health in League City, supporting adolescents in residential treatment from around the country with a wide range of challenges including oppositional defiance and conduct concerns, mood instability, parent-child interaction issues, personality disorders such as Borderline Personality Disorder, suicidality and self-harm, substance use, and aggression.

In subsequent years Andrew moved into private practice, concentrating on teens and adults who are navigating trauma, mood disorders, and relational difficulties whether marital or familial. His physical office is in the Southeast Houston area, and he also meets exclusively online with the platform subscribers through the the platform platform. Andrew adapts his methods to each person he sees, drawing primarily on cognitive-behavioral techniques while integrating DBT and mindfulness skills when appropriate. With roughly 10 years of clinical experience as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, he works with issues such as stress and anxiety, relationship and attachment difficulties, ADHD, addictions, grief and loss, eating and sleeping problems, parenting and family-of-origin concerns, mood disorders including bipolar and depression, and challenges around intimacy, self-esteem, and life transitions.

Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care

Andrew integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques, and mindfulness practices into his online work. CBT focuses on identifying and adjusting unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning, and it is often used for anxiety, depression, and mood-related concerns. DBT emphasizes skills training in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness - approaches that help when emotions feel overwhelming or relationships are strained. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and acceptance skills that can reduce reactivity and support coping with stress and trauma.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Andrew will work with each person to assess needs, goals, and personal preferences, and then tailor a blend of strategies so the treatment fits the individual rather than forcing a single model.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can be scheduled as video calls, conducted by phone, or handled via live chat and text-based messaging to suit different schedules and communication styles. These options make it easier to maintain consistent care while balancing work, school, family, and other commitments, and they allow licensed professionals to deliver the same therapeutic approaches in formats that meet clients where they are.
