Dr. Andi Xhihani
About Me
I am a Licensed Psychologist providing psychotherapy in the Philadelphia area. I have 10 years of therapy experience. I hold a Ph.D in Counseling Psychology and a Masters degree in Mental Health Counseling.
​
I have the benefit of working in broad clinical settings and client populations prior to starting my practice. I have worked in community mental health centers, inpatient and outpatient settings, hospitals, college counseling centers, and addiction centers. These experiences have allowed me to be a more flexible clinician and better tailor my approach to different client needs.
​
I identify as Albanian-American. I was born in Albania and moved to the United States at a young age. My worldview is influenced by my bi-cultural identity and contributes to my open minded and empathic nature. Outside of my work and career interests, I enjoy learning about history, comedy, and spending time with family and friends.
