Andrea Stopa

Andrea Stopa is a compassionate Clinical Social Worker and therapist who specializes in working with teens and adults facing challenges such as depression, anxiety, and women's issues. Her approach to therapy is both eclectic and holistic, drawing from her educational background at Hunter College's Silberman School of Social Work, her training in somatic psychotherapy, and her experience as a trained herbalist and yoga teacher. Andrea understands that individuals often find themselves at an inner crossroads, feeling overwhelmed by their emotions or struggling to break repetitive cycles. She creates a nurturing environment for clients who are intelligent and sensitive, helping them navigate their feelings and find fulfillment in their lives. Grounded in the principles of mindfulness, compassion, and balance, Andrea’s therapeutic practices integrate various modalities, including trauma-focused and culturally sensitive approaches. She believes that the best place to start is from exactly where one is, and together, she collaborates with clients to unearth their inherent strengths, build trust, and cultivate sustainable practices that facilitate personal growth and resilience in the ebbs and flows of life.
