Dr. Amanda Burger

Hello, I am a licensed psychologist that has been practicing for 15 years. I received my doctoral degree from Wayne State University in Detroit, Michigan and have worked in a variety of health care settings before deciding to build a virtual practice. I am passionate about helping people improve their health and well-being through changing behavior and better regulating emotions. I use an active approach designed to help increase motivation and utilize strengths and resources already available.

Having worked with clients for the past 15 years, I have developed an approach that focuses on identifying what underlies behavioral patterns and setting specific behavioral goals to lead to measurable progress. My goal is to partner with you to better help you understand yourself, develop self-compassion, and meet the goals you have for your future.

In our first session we will complete brief introductions along with an opportunity for me to learn more about what you are currently experiencing and needing from treatment so that we can start the goal setting process. After that we will continue to check in to make sure that we are making progress on goals and that the process is helping you to accomplish what you need.

If you’re finding it difficult to cope with work, health, your relationships, or daily life, you have come to the right place! Maybe you’ve tried therapy before and felt like nothing changed. We will work together to help you set meaningful goals and learn practical skills. Please schedule an appointment if you are ready and willing to start making important changes in your life.

To help with transparency and informed consent, I am including in the profile that I do not complete Emotional Support Animal documentation and only complete disability documentation in limited circumstances and with established clients.
