ANDREA PEYSER, LCSW

After years working as a hospice in-home provider, Andrea Peyser developed extensive training and experience in End-of-Life issues.  She specializes in working with older adults facing health crises, family members of critically ill or cognitively challenged adults, often assisting individuals with medical navigation.  Andrea helps develop skills to cope with the stress and improve the individual or family’s ability to advocate in various situations.  She also works with anticipatory grief as well as actual loss.

Trained in Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) and Meditation, Andrea incorporates these mind-body practices into her clinical work to address anxiety, depression, compulsivity and health issues, including chronic pain.  She also incorporates DBT skills and concepts to help clients take new skills home with them.  Andrea is compassionate and caring in her treatment with individuals and families experiencing difficulties in aging and health issues.
