Taking the first step into therapy can feel daunting, but you don't have to navigate life’s challenges alone. I am a dedicated therapist specializing in helping individuals heal from trauma, manage panic disorders, navigate complex relationship dynamics, explore identity, and work through alcohol and substance use challenges. My practice is deeply rooted in supporting people through anxiety, depression, anger management, stress, and family conflicts, with a special focus on maternal mental health, pre-partum, and postpartum care. Whether you are dealing with deep-seated struggles like PTSD or simply feeling overwhelmed by daily life, my goal is to provide a compassionate, inclusive, and deeply human environment where you feel truly seen, heard, and understood.

Every new beginning starts with one step and you don't have to take it alone. I’m Marsha, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and I’m glad you’re here.

Reaching out for support is a sign of strength, not weakness and you don’t have to navigate difficult seasons of life alone. With more than 30 years of experience supporting individuals and families through a wide range of life transitions, including emotional well-being, relationship and family issues, trauma, medical concerns, caregiver support, and other stressful circumstances you may have encountered.

Serving Veterans, families, homelessness, and vulnerable adults to create a path toward greater balance and well-being. My goal is not to tell you how to live your life, but to walk alongside you, listen, provide support, and help you discover the path that feels right for you.

Bri Harless

Bri Harless

Therapist

Virtual • Michigan


I have been doing this work since 2009 — which means I have sat with a lot of people through a lot of different kinds of hard. I hold a Master's degree in Counseling with a dual focus in professional counseling and marriage and family therapy, and my career has moved through two distinct chapters that have shaped how I practice. The first half was spent in the world of substance use — working with individuals and families where the stakes were high and the complexity was real. The last several years have been in private practice, where I've worked with the full range of human struggle: depression, anxiety, ADHD, PTSD, substance use disorders, parenting stress, and the disorienting moments when life shifts beneath your feet. I work with individuals, couples, and groups. Very few things surprise me at this point — and that's exactly what makes this work feel safe.

Therapist

Hello, my name is Thamreen, and welcome to Tufts and Tulips Therapy! I’m so glad you’ve taken this important first step toward exploring therapy. I understand how overwhelming it can feel, but I want you to know that you don’t have to navigate it alone. With over ten years of experience as a clinical social worker, I’ve had the honor of supporting people who, like you, were unsure or nervous about starting therapy—and together, from tufts to tulips, we’ve created real and lasting change.

Throughout my career, I’ve worked in hospitals, EAPs, crisis lines, and community mental health settings, offering care to veterans, people experiencing homelessness, refugees, company executives, youth, the elderly, and everyone in between. Whether you’re an individual, couple, or family, I welcome clients of all genders, ethnicities, sexual orientations, and backgrounds, ages 17 and up. Kindness, empathy, and respect are the foundation of my work, and I strive to make sure you feel seen, heard, and valued from day one.

Mark Andrews

Therapist

Virtual • Michigan


I have been counseling people of all ages for 43 years. I begin with listening to your story. I not only want to hear it; I want to understand it as well. Sometimes, this mutual understanding alone is all that a client needs. During the intake process, I will ask you detailed questions to further understanding of your situation and issues you are dealing with right now. Next, we will work together to form a plan of action which will guide our sessions together, which typically last 45 – 50 minutes. This plan of action will focus on helping you, the client, work towards solving problems and issues that you present. Did I mention that takes work? Achieving understanding of issues and taking appropriate actions towards wellness both take time, concentration and energy.
