Andrea Turnipseed, LCSW has training and background in adult mental health. She has worked with clients in acute inpatient and outpatient psychiatric settings, facilitating both group and individual therapy. She has a particular interest in working with individuals who experience mood disorders such as anxiety, depression, and bipolar disorder. She also helps clients through various life challenges such as grief and loss, relationship issues, parenting, and school and career stress.

Andrea assesses each individual to guide the direction of therapy. Andrea has been formally trained in Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) and she also utilizes techniques from psychodynamic, cognitive behavioral (CBT), acceptance & commitment (ACT), solution-focused, and strengths-based therapy models to help identify the resources within the client to move past negative thoughts and behaviors.

Andrea provides a non-judgmental space for clients to share events and difficulties. She asks questions and makes observations to help elicit positive change and growth.

As Executive Director, Andrea is responsible for the overall health and wellbeing of the organization, as well as surprising us all with delicious treats from time-to-time.
