Andrea Raasch, LCSW, CSW

Andrea Raasch is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 29 years of experience. She practices in Colorado and helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, self-esteem struggles, depression, and coping with life changes. Andrea also focuses on workplace concerns, communication problems, isolation, guilt and shame, and questions about life purpose.

Her approach combines practical therapies that focus on thoughts, behavior, and motivation. She pays attention to how the nervous system affects feelings and behavior and works with clients to reduce overwhelm. Sessions include learning skills to notice and regulate physical and emotional reactions so clearer thinking becomes possible.

Andrea uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing alongside Narrative and Solution-Focused methods. She also incorporates trauma-focused techniques when addressing post-traumatic stress and abuse. In conversation she helps people identify patterns, rehearse new responses, and set small achievable goals.

Clients can expect straightforward, goal-oriented work that addresses immediate problems and longer-term patterns. Andrea emphasizes practical tools for managing mood, confidence, and stressful work situations. She encourages open discussion of all parts of a person’s experience so decisions come from clearer thinking and steadier feelings.

Her background blends decades of clinical practice with a focus on nervous system regulation and trauma-informed care. Andrea aims to help people restore more balanced emotions, clearer self-understanding, and improved capacity to make choices that fit their values.
