Let’s be honest—starting therapy or entering treatment can feel intimidating. But the fact that you’re here already says so much about your strength and determination. My focus is on making sure you feel safe, understood, and empowered as we figure out the next steps together.

Hi There!

I am Amanda and I have been a practicing Therapist since 2016. I have a wide range of experience including: Treatment Resistant Depression and Anxiety, PTSD, and Grief and Loss.

I am warm, patient, and direct. I want to help you make the most of life and develop faith in yourself to overcome life challenges and turn them for good.

Spring is a time for renewal and what better time to focus on renewing yourself and your life! In my 16 years as a therapist, I've supported many clients to take a new look at their life and to move toward that renewal. While therapy might feel scary at first, my training and support will make it less so. I can teach you skills through therapies including DBT and EMDR that will allow you to manage symptoms of depression, anxiety, trauma and more. Your life doesn't have to feel out of control or difficult to manage. I'm here to help. Allow me to walk with you as we work together toward building the healthier life you want and deserve!

I offer a warm, safe space to talk through what you’re facing and learn skills that actually make a difference. I work with kids, teens, and adults coping with trauma, anxiety, and stress. My approach is collaborative, trauma-informed, and LGBTQ-affirming, and I tailor therapy to fit your goals and pace.
