A bit about my approach to therapy

Amanda’s therapeutic skillset includes working with issues surrounding anxiety, depression, chronic illness, aging, caregiving, and grief as well as stressors related to serious mental health and behavioral challenges. Amanda uses a narrative approach with her clients which allows each client to identify strengths and weaknesses that can be used to overcome the challenges they face.
