    About Andrea

    At Steyn Integrative Counseling, we believe healing begins by reconnecting with the body—the foundation of all deeper inner work. Andrea, a Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT-500) with advanced training in trauma-informed and nervous-system-based movement, offers gentle sessions designed to help you cultivate presence, awareness, and ease.

    ​

    These sessions are an optional complement to therapy and a wonderful starting point for those preparing to begin Internal Family Systems (IFS) work. Learning to notice and attune to your body’s signals and nervous system states helps create the internal safety needed for the IFS process of finding, focusing on, and fleshing out parts. Many clients discover that this body-led awareness naturally opens space for curiosity and compassion—the same qualities that make IFS so transformative.

    ​

    Sessions are educational and experiential in nature—focused on body awareness and connection rather than psychotherapy or clinical treatment. They draw on trauma research, including insights from The Body Keeps the Score, and integrate gentle yoga, breath, and mindfulness practices that invite you to listen to your body and let it guide the pace.

    ​

    Group sessions ($30) and private sessions ($140, cash pay) are offered as stand-alone experiences or alongside therapy. Those on a therapy waitlist are especially encouraged to begin here, as it nurtures the embodied awareness that enhances future therapeutic work. With your consent, Andrea can coordinate with your therapist to support continuity of care.

    ​

    We invite you to explore more in our FAQs, where we clarify how body-based nervous system attunement differs from therapy—and how both can work together in your healing journey.

    Client Testimonial

    "I started working with Andrea because I had a feeling of “needing to cry” but had parts of me that needed me to be "tough". I recently experienced some grief, but felt a sense that there was more my body was holding onto. Working with Andrea is like stepping into a space outside of this world - completely free of judgment, deeply compassionate, and true bottom up work. I am someone who feels connected to my body, however, she makes connections and guides you in a way I don’t think I could have done alone. The first few sessions I went from frustration toward the parts of me that are stubborn to cry to full acceptance of them, due to her genuine feelings of care toward them, and eventually I grew completely comfortable with letting them be there. At the end of our sessions, I was able to have an emotional trauma release, from doing work on the mat guided by Andrea – I believe it was possible because of all the safety built up in our previous sessions. I was able to release many stored emotions from my nervous system and have felt an extreme weight lifted off my body - in a spiritual sense but also from some symptoms of chronic illness. I can’t speak highly enough of my experience - what is so special is that Andrea also TEACHES you the tools. You are able to become a driver of your own embodied experience with her guidance."
