Getting to know Andrew Fishman

Andrew Fishman, LCSW (he/him) is a therapist who works with teens and emerging adults. He received a Bachelor of Arts degree from New College of Florida, with a double major in psychology and art. After graduating, he spent four years working at a therapeutic school for middle schoolers with emotional and behavioral disorders while pursuing a master’s degree in clinical social work at Loyola University Chicago. Since then, he has conducted individual and family therapy for adolescents dealing with a variety of issues and led both support groups for people with behavioral issue disorders and social groups for autistic teens and adults. Andrew uses a client-centered, humanistic approach to therapy, incorporating elements from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, as appropriate for each client. Andrew has a unique specialty in the impact of video games on mental health. “As a life-long gamer, I recognize the many educational and social benefits video games can offer. I also know that, for some, video games can present a serious concern. Because they are often designed to be habit-forming, many players find it challenging to balance their desire to play games with work, chores, family time, homework, and extracurricular activities. Parents may struggle to understand whether these games are harmless fun – a popular way to hang out with friends online – or an isolating obsession. “By helping people identify and examine their values, I help them to find balance in their lives and be the people they want to be.”
