What Clients Should Know About Me

I’m calm, direct, and genuinely human. I take my work seriously, but I don’t take myself too seriously—and I don’t expect you to perform, impress, or hold it all together here.

I work best with people who are capable, thoughtful, and used to being the reliable one. If you’re efficient, responsible, and a little tired of being “the strong one,” you’re in the right place. I’ll meet you with steadiness, curiosity, and respect for your intelligence.

Sessions with me are structured not stiff, insightful without being overwhelming, and focused on helping you carry less alone and silent without losing what works. You can expect honesty, warmth, and the occasional gentle humor—because even high-functioning people deserve to breathe.

Amanda Sladky

Therapist

Virtual • Mississippi


I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the state of Mississippi and the state of Michigan.

I received my bachelor’s degree from the University of Mississippi (Hotty Toddy!) and my Master of Arts in Counseling from Reformed Theological Seminary. Before moving to Jackson, Miss. for graduate school, I worked with Cru (a campus ministry) for three years on the Ole Miss campus.

While living in Oxford, I also worked as the Administrative Assistant at Grace Bible Church of Oxford for two years.

Through receiving counseling in my own life, my desire grew to sit with and serve those experiencing darkness, hardship, or hurt in their own life. I want to utilize my life experience and education to walk alongside my clients as they uncover and develop their own internal resources.
