About Andrea
Andrea Daigle is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Maine with five years of experience as a therapist. She focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, and related concerns. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy in her practice.
Andrea describes a background that includes hospital, outpatient, and school settings. Those roles contributed to a broad clinical perspective and experience working with a range of presenting problems. She earned a Master of Social Work degree from the University of New England in 2015 and holds the LCSW credential in Maine.
In sessions she works in a straightforward way to identify what matters to the client and what gets in the way. She uses goal-oriented tools from CBT to look at patterns of thought and behavior. She also uses DBT skills for managing intense emotions and ACT ideas to help people act on their values instead of just reacting.
Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused Therapy show up as brief, practical steps when readiness for change or immediate problem-solving is the focus. Andrea also works with issues often connected to trauma, obsessive-compulsive concerns, panic, and young adult transitions.
She provides therapy in English. International clients are not accepted. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, a reader would use the See online therapy options button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session.

How Andrea uses ACT, CBT and DBT in remote work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and connect actions to what they care about. It is often used when values and meaningful direction are part of the concern, such as life changes or questions about purpose.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thought and behavior that keep problems going. It is practical and skill-based, often used for anxiety, panic, depression, and obsessive-compulsive concerns.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. These tools can help with intense emotions, anger, and relationship-related stress.
Choosing a method is part of the initial work. Andrea will collaborate with each person to decide which approach or combination fits their goals and preferences. She adapts techniques based on what a client hopes to change and how they respond in early sessions.
Confirm current session formats before booking, as specific formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into busy days, allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, and reduce travel time. These practical benefits help people maintain consistency while working on stress, anxiety, trauma, and related concerns.
