I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with 18 years experience.

Hi, I'm Winter. I offer my clients a warm, safe environment to explore and grow together. My goal is to support you and help work through whatever has brought you to therapy.

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.

Hi there! My name is Shante, and I’m happy you’re here.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker originally from the Bay Area and have called Las Vegas home for over 10 years. My background includes work in trauma-informed care, community mental health, and supporting Veterans navigating complex life challenges. These experiences deepened my belief that healing happens best in spaces where people feel genuinely seen, respected, and safe enough to be honest about what they’re carrying.

I strive to create a therapy space that feels grounded, collaborative, and human. I primarily support women navigating anxiety, stress, burnout, life transitions, emotional overwhelm, and the pressures of trying to hold everything together while still caring for themselves. My approach is rooted in CBT and mindfulness-informed practices, helping clients better understand patterns in their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors while building healthier coping tools, emotional awareness, and more intentional ways of responding to life.

Clients often describe me as warm, calming, easy to talk to, and deeply present. I value authenticity in the therapeutic relationship and believe meaningful growth happens when people feel emotionally safe, supported, and empowered to reconnect with themselves without shame or judgment.

Outside of therapy, I enjoy pottery, mindfulness practices, spending time with my family, and finding small ways to slow down and stay present throughout the day. I believe healing often happens in the little moments where we learn to reconnect with ourselves with more compassion and intention.
