navigating anxiety, burnout, perfectionism, trauma, grief, and major life transitions

You're doing everything right. So why does it still feel like it's not enough?

Therapy for high-functioning women who are exhausted by the gap between how capable they appear and how depleted they actually feel.

welcome,

I’m Andrea, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist + the founder of Tulipa Therapy.

I created Tulipa Therapy because I believe therapy should be more than a place to talk about what’s wrong. It should be a place where you can finally stop holding everything together, understand what’s really going on beneath the surface, and begin creating a life that feels more like your own.

I work with high-achieving women who are used to being capable, responsible, and the ones everyone else can count on, but who may be feeling anxious, burned out, overwhelmed, disconnected, or simply tired of trying so hard.

At Tulipa, we believe you don’t have to wait until you’re falling apart to ask for support. Therapy can help you feel less overwhelmed, more confident in yourself, and more connected to what you actually want. We combine evidence-based tools with mindfulness, self-compassion, and somatic work in a way that’s built around you, your story, your patterns, and what actually needs to shift.

The goal isn’t just to cope better. It’s to actually feel different.

I’m no stranger to life’s ups and downs. My own journey has been full of challenges and growth, and through that process, I’ve learned firsthand what can make a real difference when it comes to finding your way back to yourself. There’s so much more to my story, but for now, know this: whatever brought you here, you don’t have to navigate it alone.

And as Tulipa grows, my goal is to create a practice where women can find thoughtful, compassionate therapists who understand that looking like you have it all together doesn’t mean you have to carry everything on your own.

You’re allowed to want more than just getting through the day.

to empower women with the skills and resources to explore, breathe, and heal—so they can reclaim their confidence, feel grounded and in control, and create lives that feel deeply fulfilling and intentional.

our mission

Because when women show up for themselves and embrace their potential, they create a ripple effect—fostering stronger relationships, healthier families, and a better life for everyone around them.

You don’t have to have the perfect words for what’s wrong.

Sometimes you just know that something needs to change.
