My name is Amanda Tessmer, a licensed mental health practitioner at New Path Counseling. I have always felt a strong desire to work with individuals and couples to navigate any challenges they may face. Becoming a therapist was a very easy decision for me since I have a strong desire to walk with clients on their journey to self-healing and self-love. Everyone is unique and deserves a non-judgmental, confidential space to explore and discover positive changes that improve their lives, so I strive to build a strong collaborative relationship where these changes can happen.
From depression and anxiety, coping with life stressors, or learning emotional regulation techniques, to goal setting, or developing effective communication skills, I am dedicated to creating a safe space where clients are able to flourish.
My approach to therapy is integrative and includes listening with compassion and empathy, creating safe space for expression and exploration of thoughts, feelings and behaviors, and empowering individuals to reach their goals.

I work with clients to achieve therapy goals set forth in a clinical treatment plan tailor-made for each individual, family or couple. Our initial sessions begin with building a strong therapeutic relationship and identifying goals of therapy that target specific concerns. Most of my clients see a gradual lifting of symptoms within the first month and sustained improvement thereafter.

I am formally trained in Sandtray and Grief Counseling and I am committed to continuing professional training in additional techniques. I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to look at how thoughts and feelings affect your thoughts and emotions with targeted techniques to change negative thought and behavior patterns.
