Hello,

It's a pleasure to meet you.

As a social worker I believe prioritizing mental health is key to an individual's ability to live a productive life. We all need support at some point in our lives, so thank you for taking the first step on the road to empowerment. I have provided individual and group therapy to adults for the past eight years.

Hi, I’m Amanda Sifonte, LCSW. I work with teens, adults, and older adults experiencing anxiety, depression, addiction, stress, chronic health conditions, grief, and life transitions.

Using a collaborative and individualized approach, I tailor treatment to your unique needs and goals, helping you build practical skills, gain insight, and move toward lasting growth and well-being.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker providing trauma-informed therapy for adults navigating anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, emotional dysregulation, life transitions, and patterns that may no longer be serving them. My professional background includes work in outpatient behavioral health settings, where I’ve worked with clients experiencing complex trauma, attachment wounds, and longstanding relational patterns that may contribute to various mental health concerns. Clients often come to therapy feeling stuck in cycles of people-pleasing, emotional overwhelm, self-criticism, unhealthy relationship dynamics, or difficulty understanding why they react the way they do. Together, we work to identify where these patterns originate and develop healthier, more intentional ways of responding.
