Sleep or Insomnia Therapists in St John's, NL
Amanda has training in evidence-based approaches including Trauma-Informed Care, Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), Trauma Related Insomnia, and Somatic Therapy.
Protecting your mental health is essential. We all have problems, periods of stress and challenges in life that strain our ability to cope at times. However, when you have a mental or physical health issue that is taking a toll on your wellness, that becomes your main issue.
If you're feeling dysregulated, which is common during times of stress, focusing on self-care, mindfulness, and grounding practices can help. If your nervous system is working hard to protect you, you may feel overwhelmed and you deserve support. During appointments, we can explore and develop strategies to help you feel like yourself again.

Reaching out for help can be overwhelming, and taking that first step is often the hardest, but it can be life-changing. I am passionate about working in mental health and creating a safe, nonjudgmental space where you will feel heard and supported in sharing your experiences and challenges. Together, we can work to gain new perspectives, develop your skills, identify your strengths, and create positive changes in your life. I understand the difficulties and stress that come with many life transitions, grief, work-life balance, being a parent, and dealing with mental and chronic illnesses.

Many of the adults I work with feel caught between knowing what matters to them and having difficulty putting it into practice. This might mean struggling to get started or follow through with ADHD, feeling frustrated by pain, injury, or changes in activity, or finding that stress, perfectionism, and self-criticism keep getting in the way. I also support people working toward sustainable health changes, including concerns related to weight, physical activity, and everyday habits.

You’re the one people count on—the dependable mom, the first responder, the strong one in the family, the high achiever, the problem solver. From the outside, it looks like you’ve got it all together. But inside, you might feel exhausted, anxious, burned out, or unsure of who you are beyond the roles you’ve taken on. Maybe you’re wrestling with perfectionism, self-doubt, ADHD, or work and school stress. Maybe you feel stuck in patterns of over-functioning, people-pleasing, or procrastination. And sometimes, you find yourself asking, “When do I get to exhale?”

I foster a safe refuge where you can begin to unpack your lived experiences free from judgment. While honouring your story, I offer support in exploring what's working and deterring you from where you'd like to be. In doing so, pathways can be created to explore healthier ways to cope, live a more meaningful and authentic life, gain greater insight, and communicate your needs and boundaries with others. My approach to therapy is trauma-informed, anti-oppressive, strengths-based and draws from intersectional feminist theory. I integrate somatic therapy, mindfulness, Hakomi, narrative therapy, CBT, and learnings from neuroscience.
