Great to meet you!

Hello I’m Amanda! I'm a licensed therapist offering online therapy and I’m accepting new clients. It can be daunting to start or resume therapy with a new therapist. So I strive to create a strong therapeutic relationship with my clients from the first session and onward. Being in therapy myself and doing the work that I do, I know this is hard work but it’s so meaningful and transformative. Outside of work, I enjoy making crafts, playing video games, watching scary movies, and visiting my local farmers market.

My approach to therapy

My favorite part of my job is having genuine connections with my clients, celebrating their wins with them, and finding breakthroughs that genuinely help boost their understanding of themselves and their confidence to deal with life challenges. I most often do individual therapy with older teen, young adult, and adult clients. I help treat depression, anxiety, relationship issues, pornography addiction, faith crisis, and trauma.

What you can expect from me

I hope my clients leave sessions feeling more grounded and having gained more clarity in dealing their presenting concerns.
