About Andrew

Andrew Oxman is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) based in Massachusetts with 26 years of clinical experience. He offers a calm, collaborative approach and aims to help people facing stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and life transitions. He also supports those dealing with relationship and family concerns, career questions, parenting strain, anger, and compassion fatigue.

Andrew listens closely and works with each person to set clear goals. He believes people can change in ways that matter to them. Sessions may include practical tasks between meetings to strengthen progress day to day.

His work draws on client-centered and attachment-based ideas, cognitive behavioral techniques, existential reflection, and mindfulness practices. He also integrates expressive tools like writing and role play when they fit a person's needs. Spiritual concerns can be part of the conversation when clients want that included.

Andrew has experience helping people process grief and loss and heal patterns that began in their family of origin, including emotional abuse. He does not provide treatment for addictions, sexual trauma, or eating disorders and suggests seeking a clinician who focuses on those concerns if they apply.

His style is relational and encouraging, with an emphasis on practical steps and steady listening. Those who prefer collaborative, talk-focused work that connects feelings, beliefs, and everyday behavior may find his approach useful.

How his approaches work in online therapy

Andrew uses client-centered work and attachment-based ideas to build a respectful, listening-based relationship. Client-centered therapy focuses on the person's own goals and pace, offering empathy and encouragement while clients talk through concerns. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships affect current patterns and can help with relationship struggles and family of origin issues.

He also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. CBT can be useful for anxiety, depression, and stress by breaking problems into manageable steps and testing practical changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist discusses goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, then adjusts methods as needed. This collaborative stance helps tailor sessions so they match a person's day-to-day life and priorities.

The therapist's biography does not specify which online session formats are offered, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can still make therapy easier to fit into a busy schedule, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time so appointments are more convenient. Therapists can suggest between-session practices and written assignments that fit into everyday routines.
