Andrew Anderson Therapy

For & With Others

My background

The call to help and support others has guided my career. I completed my undergraduate degree at Fordham University where I learned how to teach and pursued work in education. After a decade in front of classrooms, I returned to school myself and completed a postgraduate degree at William Paterson University in counseling.

During my clinical training, I interned with a NJ-based non-profit mental healthcare organization and provided counseling services both in-person and virtually throughout the state. After graduating, I remained employed with the non-profit agency while further expanding my clinical reach and skills by contracting with several group practices and supervisors delivering care to diverse and unique populations: children, families, LGBTQ+, disabled, differently abled, veterans, adults on Medicare/Medicaid.

It is during this time in my career that I completed a specialized months-long training in Internal Family Systems psychotherapy which informs my practice to this day. Now I continue to work with agencies and in my own private practice capacity to share my passion and skills with adults in New Jersey seeking counseling and support.
