Andrea Siferd (she/her)

My Background

Before becoming a therapist, Andrea spent years supporting adults in early recovery from addiction and mental health challenges. That experience deepened her belief in the human capacity for change and led her to earn her Master’s in Clinical Psychology from Antioch University. As a member of the LGBTQ+ community, Andrea is deeply committed to creating a therapeutic space where clients of all identities and backgrounds feel seen, supported, and safe. She understands that the systems we navigate shape our experiences, and she approaches therapy through a feminist lens, with a strong emphasis on cultural humility.

My Approach to Helping

Andrea believes therapy works best when it’s rooted in trust, authenticity, and mutual respect. Her approach is integrative and personalized, drawing from client-centered, acceptance and commitment (ACT), and cognitive behavioral (CBT), therapies. She also values client feedback as a vital part of the process—it’s how the work stays collaborative, responsive, and effective. Andrea recognizes that many of us didn’t grow up in families or communities that affirmed our worth, met our emotional needs, or taught us how to cope with life’s hardships. But your past does not define your future. Growth is always possible. In therapy, you’ll find a space to explore, heal, and move toward the life you want—at your own pace, with a therapist who truly listens and believes in your capacity for change.
