Andrew Newhouse

Andrew Newhouse is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) based in Hawaii. He focuses on helping people who are coping with life changes and the everyday stress those changes can bring. He also supports people dealing with anxiety, addiction, grief, low self-esteem, anger, and relationship or family concerns.

Andrew came to this work after losing his mother at 17 and finding healing through therapy. That experience guided his decision to study marriage and family therapy and shaped how he listens to others. He draws on many years of practice to offer steady, practical care.

In sessions he uses clear, goal-focused methods and open listening. He often blends client-centered conversation with techniques from cognitive behavioral and solution-focused approaches. For people who have a trauma history, he draws on trauma-focused ideas to keep conversations grounded and manageable.

Andrew has 14 years of experience working with people from varied backgrounds. He commonly addresses substance use, depression, post-traumatic stress, social anxiety, and caregiver stress. He aims to help clients find small, doable changes that reduce distress and improve daily life.

He works in English and is licensed as an LMFT. To start, readers should confirm current session options and scheduling details before booking.

How these approaches shape online care

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person's experience. The therapist follows the client's lead, reflecting feelings and priorities to build trust and clarity. This approach helps when someone needs space to be heard and to make sense of big changes.

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact. It uses practical exercises to test unhelpful thoughts and build different habits. CBT is often useful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems where concrete steps can reduce symptoms.

Finding the right approach is part of working together. Andrew will collaborate with each person to figure out which methods fit their needs and goals. That means checking in, adjusting techniques, and focusing on steps that feel achievable.

Confirm current session formats before booking, since specific online options are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by removing travel time and allowing shorter check-ins when needed. It can also make talking about difficult topics more manageable by letting people join from a familiar setting and move at their own pace. Licensed therapists can help plan sessions so they match a person's schedule and the pace of their work toward change.
