Andi Cueny Ward, LAPC, NCC, Ed. S

Therapist

Welcome! My name is Andi and I look forward to meeting you. I am a Licensed

Associate Professional Counselor in Georgia and a National Certified Counselor with 28

years of experience in education and raising a family, including 2 years as a school

counselor. Throughout my career, I have worked closely with adolescents and adults as

they navigate family changes, relationship challenges, and the many transitions that

shape our lives.

I hold both a Master’s and Specialist degree in Counselor Education and Professional

Counseling. My extensive background in education allows me to understand firsthand

the academic, social, and emotional pressures individuals and families experience. I am

especially passionate about supporting clients as they adjust to shifting family

dynamics, cope with loss, and work through seasons of uncertainty with strength and

self-compassion.

My counseling style is person centered and rooted first in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

(CBT), helping clients recognize and reframe unhelpful thought patterns that contribute

to anxiety, stress, and emotional overwhelm. I also incorporate principles of Acceptance

and Commitment Therapy (ACT), guiding clients to clarify their values and take

intentional steps toward a life that feels purposeful and aligned, even in the presence of

pain or difficulty. With additional training in trauma and grief, I approach each client’s

story with sensitivity and care, creating a steady, supportive environment where healing

and growth can unfold at your pace.

As a single mom of three adult children, I bring not only professional experience but

also personal insight into resilience, change, and the evolving nature of family. Outside

of my work, I enjoy reading and traveling, especially to the beach whenever I can, and I

look forward to seeing more of the world in the years ahead.

It would be an honor to support you as you process your experiences, strengthen your

coping tools, and move toward a life that feels grounded, meaningful, and truly your

own.

Andi is under clinical supervision, working toward independent licensure in compliance with Georgia state licensing requirements.
