About Andrew

Andrew Newhouse is a licensed marriage and family therapist with 14 years of clinical experience. He focuses on helping people who are stressed, anxious, managing addiction, or facing parenting challenges. He listens in a direct, compassionate way and helps people find practical steps they can try between sessions.

He draws from approaches like Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to keep conversations focused and useful. Sessions tend to be straightforward: identify what is hardest right now, try small changes, and check what worked.

Background and approach

He also uses Solution-Focused and Trauma-Focused methods when those fit the situation. Andrew's interest in therapy began after he lost his mother as a teen and found help through a marriage and family therapist. That experience shaped his belief that timely support can change how people cope with grief and life shifts.

He brings that perspective into sessions and keeps goals practical and relatable. Clients often come for help with grief, depression, anger, or family and relationship strains. He also supports people dealing with ADHD, caregiver stress, substance use, and problems with communication or guilt and shame.

Andrew offers tools to manage emotions, reduce impulsive reactions, and improve daily routines. He is licensed in Hawaii as an LMFT and works with people in English. Sessions focus on realistic steps and clear feedback so people can try new ways of handling difficult moments between meetings.

Online support

Approaches that guide online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the individual. It helps people feel heard and becomes the foundation for solving parenting stress, grief, or daily anxiety. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and actions keep problems going and offers clear tools to change those patterns. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, impulsivity, and many stress-related concerns.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist and client will discuss goals, try methods, and adjust the plan based on what helps most. That collaborative process means approaches can be blended to match changes in priorities over time.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging suit quick check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to keep consistent momentum between meetings.
