About Me.

I’m Andrea Turnipseed, LCSW-S; a therapist, supervisor, and consultant based in Austin, Texas. With over 16 years of experience, I work from a relational and psychodynamic perspective, helping clients navigate challenges in relationships, career transitions, parenting, and burnout. My approach blends meaningful insight with practical tools to create lasting change.

In addition to my therapy work, I bring a strong background in business leadership and practice growth. I co-founded Roots Behavioral Health in 2015, building it from a start-up into a multi-location psychiatric and psychotherapy practice generating over $7 million annually. We became the first in Texas to offer insurance-based ketamine-assisted psychotherapy, delivering more than 7,000 sessions. In 2023, I negotiated the sale of Roots to private equity and stayed on through my 2025 exit, gaining deep expertise in scaling, mergers, and acquisitions in the mental health space. I now help other providers and practices grow with sustainable, values-driven strategies.

For more than a decade, I’ve also been a board-approved supervisor, guiding motivated clinicians in developing their skills and confidence. I especially enjoy supporting those interested in building private practices, sharing both clinical knowledge and the business strategies that foster success.

Whether you’re seeking therapy, expert consulting, or supportive supervision, I bring a unique combination of clinical expertise, leadership experience, and strategic insight to help you reach your goals
