My name is Andrea Turner, and I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor with Supervisor designation (LPCC-S) with over 10+ years of combined experience supporting individuals through life’s most difficult and transformative moments. I founded Intentional Footsteps LLC with one purpose in mind: to create a safe, empowering space where healing begins and growth is intentional.

What was your path to becoming a mental health provider?

I always had a desire to understand people and didn't realize there was a profession centered around my curiosity until college. I was also very intrigued with trying to understand my emotions growing up and because I struggled, I developed a desire to help others through their life challenges. I started providing support services to families and volunteers through a mentoring agency, which later led to interning at a psychiatric outpatient facility, to working with foster children providing therapy and to also growing my private practice here with Alma working with adults and children.

What should someone know about working with you?

How do you continue learning and building new skills?
