Amanda Nelson-Geruntho

I am a National Certified Counselor and specialize in treating anxiety disorders using CBT, DBT, MI, and mindfulness-based techniques. I'm a member of Postpartum Support International and am certified in perinatal mental health. I'm also an adjunct counselor at Spokane Falls Community College.

I'm a part-time counselor and full-time mama. When I'm not chasing my 2 young kiddos around I'm usually gardening, walking, knitting, or reading (comics, graphic memoirs, fantasy, sci-fi, literature).

I believe there is no distinction between the body and the mind. I advocate for overall health, which means during therapy we may address not only your symptoms, but also areas like sleep, nutrition, medical issues, interpersonal relationships, career/education, movement/exercise, and issues from childhood.

During therapy with me, you can expect relaxation skills training, psychoeducation, an empathetic ear, a bit of humor, and a gentle look at thoughts and behaviors that might be maintaining your distress. Most of my clients are women seeking help with parenting, stress, anxiety, and/or depression.
