About Torey Andrus
LMFT (she/her)
Nice to meet you, I’m Torey! I specialize in working with individuals and couples who are experiencing relationship distress, communication difficulties, intimacy & sex concerns, low self-esteem, infidelity, or betrayal. My practice is informed by a systemic and anti-oppression lens.
I am LGBTQIA+ affirming as well as poly friendly & kink aware. My treatment modalities are Narrative, Gottman, and EFT (emotionally-focused) which, when combined, help to gain a holistic understanding of the unique experiences our clients face and develop tools to help manage underlying concerns that cause tension.
