Andrea Velasco Echeverri

My communication style

I have been described by clients as a genuine, caring, and supportive clinician. My focus is to work with each client the way that best serves them individually, adjusting to their progress and goals.

My journey to mental healthcare

Becoming an art therapist and doing this clinical work has been the most fulfilling way to learn, collaborate, and support other humans. I am passionate about using creativity, even if art materials are not involved, in order to promote problem-solving, sharing space, and witnessing transformation.

My goals for you

During our first session, we will discuss current needs and goals, as well as the structure of the session, in which we include short-term goals. The short-term goals are based on practicing the tools being built and practiced in session outside of the therapy setting, to learn if these are working.

Our first session

In the first session, we will have brief introductions, explore questions you may have, and address your information provided from intake forms and assessments. We will establish the structure that would work for you individually and determine if it is a good fit overall.
