Andy Edson, MA, LMFT Associate
Supervised by Chris Kingsbury, M.A., LPC-S, LMFT-S
I have over 30 years of experience with working with the public, including over 25 years in management. With this experience I have taken my work and life knowledge and combined them with a master’s degree in counseling.
Prior to working as a marriage and family therapist, I worked with the public and gained the valuable knowledge of treating everyone as unique individuals and not pre-judging people by their appearance or the way they talked. I have always known I have wanted to help people and decided becoming a professional counselor was the right option. In a clinical setting, I have effectively met a wide variety of client needs. The largest demographics I have worked with includes adolescents, families, couples, and individual males.
Before joining the Center for Relational Care, I worked mainly with pre-marital and married couples and some adolescent males in a private setting. I am certified as a Prepare and Enrich facilitator and in telemental health.
