Andrea Krueger

Therapist

Virtual • Michigan


I'm a social worker therapist with 10 years in clinical practice, and over 30 years experience helping clients in poverty, housing instability, or aging-related challenges also manage their personal mental health issues. My social work background is mental health and aging specializing in adult ADHD, anxiety and mood disorders, and trauma.

I have a yoga background with RYT 200 teacher training and 20 years of personal practice, and I bring a yoga approach to clinical treatment where I show the client how to control and calm the mind, find inner balance, and navigate their personal mental health journey.

If people struggle with challenges- organizing responsibilities, finishing tasks on time, or just feeling stuck; and need ways to cope and feel better, I can help.

Bri Harless

Bri Harless

Therapist

Virtual • Michigan


I have been doing this work since 2009 — which means I have sat with a lot of people through a lot of different kinds of hard. I hold a Master's degree in Counseling with a dual focus in professional counseling and marriage and family therapy, and my career has moved through two distinct chapters that have shaped how I practice. The first half was spent in the world of substance use — working with individuals and families where the stakes were high and the complexity was real. The last several years have been in private practice, where I've worked with the full range of human struggle: depression, anxiety, ADHD, PTSD, substance use disorders, parenting stress, and the disorienting moments when life shifts beneath your feet. I work with individuals, couples, and groups. Very few things surprise me at this point — and that's exactly what makes this work feel safe.
