“Growing up, I have been pretty successful and pretty tough as a person. A few months ago, I went through a very rough time in my life. The emotional ups and downs that I went through were the worst I have ever been through. I started doing some self-help to figure out what was wrong with me and I realized that I had some insecurities that were embedded deep down and I needed to address those. To get a better perspective, I decided to invest in some counseling and came across Andrea and True Potential counseling and I am glad that I did. “

“Andrea Cairella is a bright and innovative therapist, with brilliant and imaginative ideas for shaping lives and bringing out the best in the people she touches.”
Justin W., Phoenix, AZ

“We were recommended by a friend to see Andrea Cairella for counseling. My daughter age 7 was having severe emotional problems, partly due to traumas and in part to a chemical imbalance. Andrea was able to break through those “barriers” that past therapists were unable to do. Andrea showed my daughter many positive ways to redirect her anger, frustrations and fears so she would be able to redirect herself while in school and everyday life. In my daughters words she felt “safe” in Andrea’s office. Although the process was painful at first she soon trusted Andrea’s techniques thereby breaking through those “high walls” my daughter had so carefully built. I would recommend Andrea to anyone who wanted to make positive changes in their life.”
S.D.

Melissa A.

Andrea is the best! I have seen other counselors in the past, but it took me a very long time to open up and I felt like I was not making any progress. Not so with Andrea! She has a way of making me feel like I can overcome things I had given up hope on overcoming! She is very patient and really wants to see you succeed. I have left every appointment with more peace and hope. She is definitely in the right line of work!

“I was sexually assaulted at 24 years old and coming to Andrea with my myriad of baggage in tow, is one of the most important decisions I chose to make in my healing process.  Throughout my work with her, I’ve found the understanding and acceptance, trust and insight and the compassion that I needed to surround me during this difficult process.”
Jaime M.

“She is one of the few people whom I trust today and while the journey is not an easy one, I have found her techniques, feedback, skills and overall whole-hearted-compassion for what she is doing, comforting and reassuring.  She is sure to make a safe haven for you to express your pain, hurt, thoughts and desires.”
J.M., Tempe, AZ

If you’re ready to take the steps needed to initiate your journey, take solace in knowing your partnership with Andrea during the healing process is in very competent, open and trustworthy hands.  She will stand in your corner beside you.” J.M.

“Andrea has a special presence about her. She is truly talented and gifted and has a natural ability to really reach out, engage, and touch someone’s life.  I came to her at a time when I did not know where else to turn and was truly hopeless.  I have endured sexual trauma and other impactful traumas that made day-to-day living quite difficult. I gained from her the ability to stand again and to begin down the road of personal empowerment.”
M.A.

Her skill set with EMDR, grounding skills, mindfulness, and listening made all the difference! I did not believe in my abilities and still struggle, but the time spent in counseling has made an impact, more so than any other process I have undertaken.  Andrea has a true ability to connect and guide someone towards their true potential and is able to teach the message of living a good life despite pain.”
M.A., Phoenix, AZ
