Have you ever responded to a situation that felt like it escalated too quickly or responded in a surprising way that wasn’t intended? Sometimes, the things we experience throughout life can impact the way that we respond to the situations we are currently going through. Opening up to someone can be challenging and leave you feeling vulnerable. Amanda focuses on building rapport to create a safe place for processing. Amanda is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. She specializes in working with military families and veterans. Amanda helps patients to identify their goals and learn to cope through life’s challenges in a healthy way.
She is an Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Level II trained therapist. She utilizes EMDR and other therapeutic interventions to help her patients with trauma recovery, substance abuse and recovery, depression, anxiety and other life-adjustment challenges.
Amanda grew up in the Midwest and relocated to Florida in 2010. She enjoys spending time with her husband and kids when she is outside of the office. She also has a passion for horses and her goal is to one day offer Equine Assisted Therapy.
