Hello! I am Amanda, counselor of 15 years, wife of 17 years, and mother of 10 years and counting. I have been a resident of the North Austin area for the last five years and am a Texas native, though I did spend some time growing up in the beautiful mountains of Colorado. I am active in my son’s school, my church, and my community which I am happy to call home.
I have worked in domestic violence shelters, residential programs for children, with Child Protective Services, and in Private Practice.
For many years I have had the privilege of joining my clients in the process of change. We go through so much in our lives. Love, loss, stress, and anxieties shape who we are. I respect the courage that it takes to look at these things and seek growth and change.

I don't believe in one size fits all treatment modalities. I often utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques in my practice; however I work with you to find a range of techniques from various treatment modalities to customize your therapy to what best fits you as an individual. I offer Christian/ Faith based counseling upon request.
