About Andrea Vander Hyde

Therapist in Los Angeles, CA

Hi, I’m Andrea — Therapist for Women Seeking Healing and Self-Worth

Offering Online Therapy in Los Angeles and Throughout California

I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who helps women heal from relationship anxiety, low self-worth, and the emotional toll of living in a high-pressure world.

I love this work deeply. Being able to witness a woman reclaim her voice, rebuild her confidence, and finally feel at home in her own body — that’s an honor I don’t take lightly.

You Don’t Have to Be “Flawless” to Be Worthy of Love

Living in a place like Los Angeles, it’s easy to feel like you’re constantly falling short — not successful enough, not thin enough, not “together” enough.

I work with women who are tired of chasing perfection and ready to explore what it means to feel emotionally safe, confident, and grounded — both in their relationships and in themselves.

Through therapy, we’ll unpack what’s been holding you back. You’ll learn how to:

  • Quiet the inner critic

  • Set boundaries that protect your peace

  • Recognize and meet your own emotional needs

  • Heal from old wounds and release self-blame

  • Develop a more compassionate relationship with yourself

My Approach to Therapy

You are not broken. You don’t need to be “fixed” — but you do deserve support.
My approach is relational, integrative, and grounded in trauma-informed care. I blend talk therapy with somatic awareness, mindfulness, and cognitive reframing to help you connect with your body, shift patterns, and gain clarity.

We’ll move at your pace. We’ll explore what’s coming up in the present, while honoring what you've been through in the past. Together, we’ll help you move from self-doubt to self-trust.

My Education & Experience

I earned dual Bachelor's degrees in Psychology and Sociology from UCLA, and a Master's in Clinical Psychology from Antioch University.

I’ve worked with adults from diverse cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds, helping them navigate anxiety, trauma, relationship struggles, family conflict, and identity development. My tools include:

  • Mindfulness-based practices

  • Somatic (body-based) awareness

  • Cognitive restructuring and inner child work

  • Psychoeducation and nervous system regulation

Let’s Talk — Your Healing Starts Here

Finding the right therapist can feel overwhelming. I offer a free 15-minute consultation so we can see if we’re a good fit — and if I’m not the right person, I’ll help you find someone who is.
