Narrative Therapy in this listing
Narrative Therapy appears in this therapist's own list of approaches. That tells you it is part of how she works. It does not tell you how much of a session it shapes, and this directory does not check or rate training.
If a narrative approach is what you are looking for, it is worth asking Andreina directly how she uses it and what a session usually looks like.

How Narrative and Practical Therapies Work Online
Andreina often combines Narrative therapy with Client-Centered and Cognitive Behavioral ideas. Narrative therapy looks at the stories we tell about our lives and helps people reframe painful chapters so they feel less defining. Client-Centered work centers the person's perspective, listening closely and following what matters most to them. Cognitive Behavioral methods focus on spotting patterns in thoughts and behaviors and trying small, testable changes to improve daily functioning.Choosing an approach is a team effort. The therapist will work with each person to figure out what methods match their goals, comfort level, and the problems they want to solve. That collaborative process can shift over time as needs change and new priorities emerge.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that matters, while phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth or camera use is an issue. Live chat and text-based messaging support brief check-ins, quick skill practice, or ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep continuity when schedules or locations change.
