If you love what you do, you'll never work a day in your life-Hi, I'm Amanda and I"m so glad you made the first step in your healing journey—exploring your options. I have the honor of providing psychotherapy services, as well as case management and court assessments. My passion lies in helping others heal, and if you'd let me, I would be honored to hold space for your healing. This is a journey that we can walk together, so you don't have to walk it alone. Let me be your advocate, we will celebrate all of life's wins, and we will work through all of life's obstacles.
I offer individual psychotherapy services utilizing a combination of talk-therapy, Exposure and Response Prevention, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Lifespan Integration modalities. I enjoy working with those who have experienced trauma, anxiety, or obsessive-compulsive disorder. I also offer private case management outside of therapy.
Choosing a provider is never an easy decision and should not be taken lightly. I'm not everyone's cup of tea, and that's okay. When choosing someone to walk along life's path with you-you want someone who will be non-judgemental, non-biased, supportive, and advocating, but you also need someone who will challenge you to be your best "you."

While traditional talk-therapy is often what client's are looking for, many times they don't realize other therapy treatments are out there. At the first session, we explore what your goals for therapy are and discuss the best way to approach those goals. Amanda utilizes Lifespan Integration, Exposure & Response Prevention, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy, in addition to talk therapy.
