Andrea Lorenz, LPC

Founder & Therapist at Rise Therapy NW

I’m not here to “fix” you—I’m here to walk alongside you as you reconnect with the clarity, healing, and strength already within you. My approach blends clinical expertise with deep curiosity and care, creating a space that feels safe, collaborative, and attuned to your unique story. I value the courage it takes to show up, and I honor the trust you place in the therapeutic process.

I became a therapist because I believe in the power of human connection and the resilience we all carry. My work is grounded in the belief that meaningful change happens through understanding, not judgment—and that therapy can be a transformative space to explore, grow, and feel truly seen.

Candice Guillory
Professional Counselor Associate

I approach counseling through the lens of Restoration Therapy, a model that integrates principles from attachment theory, emotional regulation, and mindfulness to promote healing and personal empowerment.

I see the therapeutic relationship not as a place to simply manage symptoms, but as a sacred space for transformation and restoration.
