Amanda Stoner

I'm Amanda Stoner, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Danville, California, serving clients statewide through telehealth. I specialize in working with adolescents and adults, addressing concerns such as anxiety, depression, self-esteem, motivation, ADHD, and executive functioning. My expertise extends to relationship challenges, separation, divorce, and co-parenting. With extensive knowledge of school and special education systems, including IEP and 504 supports, I'm well-equipped to help families navigate these complexities. My background includes a B.A. in Industrial & Organizational Psychology, giving me a strong foundation in human motivation and systems, and a Master's in Marriage and Family Therapy and School Counseling, fueling my passion for supporting adolescents and young adults as they navigate the challenges of growth and development.

My therapeutic approach is grounded in a client-centered and strengths-based perspective, prioritizing the creation of a safe and non-judgmental space for individuals to explore their inner world. I am passionate about supporting both adolescents and adults as they navigate the complexities of life and strive for personal growth.

Clients can expect to leave each session feeling heard and understood, with a clearer perspective on their challenges. Through our collaborative work, they will gain practical tools and strategies to manage difficult emotions and situations. They will develop a deeper understanding of themselves and their patterns, empowering them to make positive changes in their lives. Ultimately, clients can anticipate a sense of increased self-awareness, resilience, and hope for a more fulfilling future."
