Hi there, I'm Amanda! I'm happy you're here and am excited to tell you what therapy with me looks like. Some key takeaways of my therapeutic style are that I offer direct feedback, express my empathy, and uncover the root of client’s issues to guide them toward transformative healing. Clients explain my therapeutic style as disarming, trusting that my direct feedback comes from a place of compassion. I’m passionate about uncovering the root of the client’s issues, believing that therapy is most beneficial when I can develop a secure relationship with my clients and empower them to grow.

I specialize in treating anxiety. Side effects include depression, insomnia, fears, worries, relationship problems and more. We work to relieve these issues through EMDR, EFT, and couples therapy, as well as teaching you skills to improve your self talk to eliminate triggers you can control. My training in Psychology and the teachings of of Buddhism, Hinduism and A Course in Miracles, gives me an east-west vantage point to meet you wherever you are. I have over 30 years of meditation and mindfulness practice and over 20 years working in mental health which translates to proven and effective benefits and powerful change in you.

Do you and your partner(s) constantly fight or avoid each other? Interested in Open Relationship or Non Monogamy? Are you reeling from infidelity? Has conflict in your polycule caused negative impacts in your daily lives? Need support navigating a big life change? Is there disconnect between your current beliefs, how you were brought up, and how you want to live NOW? I can help you embrace these differences and move beyond the beliefs that no longer serve you. Together we can bring your way of life and relationships in line with your beliefs. I accept these aspects of who you are and you to love these parts of you too.

My desire to care for people and improve their quality of life, combined with my own healing journey, are what made me fall in love with counseling. I really believe that we are not meant to face life's challenges alone. Life can be overwhelming, leaving us feeling weary, uncertain, and stuck. But I believe that within every person is a wellspring of strength and resilience waiting to be discovered. Together, we can navigate the complexities of life, untangle the knots of trauma, anxiety, confusion, and hurt, and forge new paths toward freedom and wholeness.

I specialize in working with couples and individuals facing relationship transitions (divorce, coparenting, platonic partnership consideration, etc.), sexual or relational desire and orientation differences (including kink, non-monogamy, and sexual orientation, gender transitions, and more), sexual and religious trauma (for ex., "exvangelicals" and queer folks with oppression trauma), intimate partner violence trauma, healing from a breach of trust, coming out and gender exploration/transition (one or both partners), and more. I frequently work with LGBTQIA/queer couples and the parents of LGBTQIA+ youth. I do work with youth 14+.

Similarly, for relationships, I provide a non -judgmental environment and practical skills to help you create new dynamics.

Hello and welcome! I believe it is my role as a therapist is to guide you as you take steps towards positive life changes, healing, and a healthy mind. I meet clients where they are and am here to help you meet your goals. My philosophy is that healing lies within our connection to others. Together, we can explore what may be holding you back from being your authentic self and can identify core areas that need to be healed for you to create fulfilling relationships. Our therapeutic relationship acts as a soft-landing place in an oftentimes harsh world, as well as a space for education, empowerment, and authenticity.

You're here because something isn't working and you are hoping to better understand what is keeping you stuck. I specialize in helping folks struggling with depression, anxiety, complex trauma and disordered eating. Whatever you bring in, our first task will be to work together to find stable ground. We can then approach ourselves with curiosity, exploring the patterns, beliefs, and experiences you have developed to adapt and survive. Ultimately, this work will allow us to interpret the world from a new viewpoint with newly developed knowledge. Through this insight, we move toward experiencing increased peace and potential.

Stressed? Burned out? Can't sleep? It's time to get our of your head and back into your body! I use a holistic, mind-body-spirit focused approach to my therapy and health coaching. My goal is to provide a safe, non-judgmental space to help you create new pathways for growth, meaning, self-compassion and a better understanding of your life experience. I believe we all possess the strength to overcome life's challenges, but often we need extra guidance, support and new "tools" to get to a more fulfilling place.

I believe that therapy can help us to move toward greater self-understanding, empowerment, and fulfillment. I strive to create a supportive therapeutic space in which you and I can collaboratively process through thoughts, feelings, and experiences with openness and compassion. So often societal messages and stigmas can cause us to view our behaviors with shame and judgment, which can lead us to feel even more stuck. My goal is to support you in slowing down, shifting toward curiosity and compassion, and feeling empowered to make the changes that you seek.

I like to create an environment that encourages self- awareness and promotes lasting change. I believe that we all have potential to obtain fulfillment. My goal as the therapist is to help support, empower, and advise so that you may achieve your goals and reach your fullest potential. Life can be hard and complicated, and each of our experiences are unique. Which is why I like to organize my orientation around my clients so that they can get the most out of our time. My intention is to create a nonjudgmental, collaborative space where my clients can unpack their truths and begin to heal.

There are many aspects of life that pull us away from our authentic selves. You might be feeling lost, confused, critical, or disconnected and hoping to find a way to connect with yourself and others, but not sure how or where to start.

Individual, relationship, and group counseling are great opportunities to allow yourself to actively take a step toward connection and fulfillment.
