Welcome and congratulations on taking a big step towards understanding yourself better and living a happier, more fulfilling life. I embrace a strengths-based approach of social work which emphasizes collaboration with a client to identify and utilize the strengths they already possess to achieve the goals that are important to them. While everyone comes into therapy seeking change of some type, I meet them where they are and examine with them their whole lives to find integrative solutions for better mental health and happier relationships.

Want to learn how to manage anxiety, lower stress, communicate in a healthy way, improve your relationship, control anger, or handle a big life transition like a career change? I can help. Many years ago, a painful breakup led me to go to therapy. I learned how to soothe my anxiety and be more authentic with others. I learned so much from therapy that I eventually decided to become a therapist myself. I will bring all of my experience—from touring the country as a musician to marketing for Fortune 500 tech companies, advocating for economic and racial justice in Congress, and teaching meditation—to helping you achieve your goals.

Trauma. Anxiety. Starting college. Moving over seas. Racial discrimination. Navigating romantic breakups. When you are experiencing a major life change it can cause worry, sleeplessness, irritability and even depression. Sadly, it seems that major changes don't just happen in isolation. In fact, you are likely struggling due to a combination of experiences that are further complicated by society's view of people from your background. It's not fair. As a clinician at PlayfulLeigh Psyched, I will help you get to where you or your teen wants to be.

In journeying through your growth process, it's important that you select a therapist who you trust will meet you where you are, and hold space for you in a way that feels organic. I hope to offer you such. While I've been trained in many modalities, I'm 100% in support of eclectic therapy which rejects a "one-size-fits- all" approach. Therapy can mean something different to each person seeking support---and that's okay.

My intention is for you to feel safe bringing all parts of yourself into our sessions. All of you - all feelings, all identities - are welcome. Only in a relationship of relative safety & non-judgement can growth happen. I maintain that YOU are the expert on you and as such I take a client-centered, collaborative, and relational approach to therapy. I will use our relationship, my experience, and YOUR insight & self-knowing, as well as appropriate tools & techniques. I will ask about your goals, challenges, strengths, and what has worked for you in the past. Your care will be as individual as you are.

Making changes in your life can be a difficult and, sometimes frightening, task. You have already taken one of the hardest steps, which is acknowledging that you need help. My clients have included pre-teens, adolescents, young adults and adults. I have worked with people who come into therapy for many different reasons, including the experience of trauma, anxiety, depression, treatment resistant depression, and bipolar disorder. Developmental struggles including adolescent stressors related to academia and achievement, and young adults struggling to achieve independence, are areas of particular interest to me.

Hello and welcome! My name is Andrea Boyd, (she/her) LCSW-C, and I am a psychotherapist specializing in working with young adults, roughly ages 18-26. This is a complex and exciting time of life in which we make myriad choices about who we want to be, who we want around us, what we want to do, and what we value, all while navigating a culture that often puts impossible expectations on us. The amount of pressure to perform or to be a certain way in these years can be overwhelming, especially for anyone with a different or marginalized identity.

I think it's very important to find a therapist who is a GOOD FIT for you with your unique needs. While I think psychodynamically, which means that I focus on helping my clients develop a deeper understanding of themselves and their relationships, I tend to be pragmatic and problem solving. My style is professional, yet relaxed and I'm appreciated for being both compassionate and having a sense of humor in my work. I see my patients in individual psychotherapy and very frequently in group therapy as well. Please note that I am only accepting new patients for group therapy.

Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your zip code.
What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the US, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.
What type of therapist is right for me?
Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.
Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.
What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
