Greetings fellow earthlings! My name is Amanda. As fellow humans, we can work together to help you get through this unpredictable life more easily. In response to our shared challenges of heartbreak, disappointment, pain and fear, I want to offer you the universal needs of feeling seen, heard, valued and supported. I focus on deeper work, to thoroughly understand the experiences and relationships that have led you to how you feel today. Together, we can look for unhelpful patterns in your life, and for creative changes to help ease the struggles you have been dealing with, to find more balance, peace and hope for your future.
My active approach is integrative and adaptable, because you need personalized support. I bring my openness and upbeat sense of humour to our sessions, which are trauma and neurodiversity-informed, as well as relational and compassion focused. If you want to know more, we can schedule a free consultation to find out if we would be a good fit.
Some real talk from a fellow client (me!): therapy can be uncomfortable and challenging, but worth the effort. I would like to offer you the compassion, understanding and safety for you to lean into that effort. I commend you for your courage to seek out the help you need, and look forward to hearing your story to help you along this journey!
