Tonya Andrews, MSW, RCSWI

I am a trauma-informed therapist who helps adults heal from anxiety, trauma, and life transitions through compassionate, evidence-based, and holistic virtual therapy. As the founder of ACT Therapy & Wellness, PLLC, I believe healing begins with awareness and continues through intentional action. My approach is rooted in trauma-informed care, cultural responsiveness, and LGBTQIA+ affirmation, creating a safe space for growth, reflection, and lasting emotional well-being.

I’m Tonya Andrews, MSW, a RCSWI and the founder of ACT Therapy & Wellness, PLLC a virtual therapy practice serving adults throughout Florida.
I help individuals heal from trauma, anxiety, burnout, and life transitions through a trauma-informed, inclusive, and holistic approach. My goal is to provide a safe, affirming space where you can release emotional weight, explore your story, and reconnect with who you truly are. My practice is LGBTQIA+ affirming, culturally responsive, and rooted in compassion and empowerment.
At ACT Therapy & Wellness, healing begins when you feel safe enough to be seen not just as a client, but as a whole person. Therapy with me is not about “fixing” you; it is about helping you Activate your strengths, align with your authentic self, and transform your life from within. My style is warm, genuine, and collaborative. I meet you where you are and walk beside you as you navigate healing and growth at your own pace. Clients often describe my sessions as both grounding and freeing a place where they can exhale and finally focus on themselves without judgment.
I integrate evidence-based modalities such as:
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to build emotional regulation and distress tolerance.

Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) to help you move toward practical change.

Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) to help calm the body and mind.

Trauma-Informed Care to support nervous system healing.

EMDR (coming soon) Trauma Framework to address deeper trauma patterns.
I also incorporate gentle coaching principles, helping you strengthen boundaries, improve communication, and cultivate balance in all areas of your life.
ACT Therapy & Wellness currently offers virtual, self-pay sessions for adults across Florida, if you are ready to begin your healing journey, I would be honored to walk beside you. Healing is not a straight path but together, we will create one that leads you back home to yourself.
