Wonder if you are autistic? Realize you are LGBTQ+ in a conservative family? Immigrated or third culture kid and trying to adjust? Want to know your partner better before you marry or expand your family? Need support during pregnancy/postpartum (all genders welcome)? Trying to build the life you want to live while balancing priorities and navigating hiccups in life can be challenging. I am here to support you as you connect to your inner wisdom that helps you build the life you want to live individually, with your partner(s)/family, or in a group.
Psychological assessments help diagnose autism and more. Therapeutically, I am attuned to supporting multicultural couples, faith transitions, pregnancy/postpartum challenges, and sexual trauma using multimodal techniques. Coordinating care with others, when needed, is also implemented to ensure evidence-based care.
Let me support you as you build the life you want to live, which may shift with the various seasons of life. If I seem like a good fit for you, please schedule an intake or phone consultation by clicking "Request Appointment" at malakpsychology.com. I look forward to serving you as you heal through your own life experiences and that of your ancestors.

Psychological assessments help diagnose autism and other disorders to help you and your health team ensure you are receiving correct treatment and accommodations if appropriate. Therapeutically, you are the Captain. I may point out coves to explore, and you have the power to dig in or to voyage elsewhere.

Multimodal techniques are used as your uniqueness is not always expressed in research, especially if you are Black, Indigenous, or another person of culture/color (BIPOC), gender diverse, etc. Therapy and assessments begin with a thorough intake allowing you to share your epic story. We create a treatment plan together, and the adventure begins blending Western practice with ancestral wisdom.

Groups

Stressed & Sexy BIPOC Women's Group

Amanda S Malak
Hosted by
Amanda S Malak

This virtual group supports Black, Indigenous, and People of Color/Culture (BIPOC) women, with relationships, racial stress, intergenerational trauma, and more for 10 weeks in a closed group (i.e., no new members enter during the 10 weeks). While individual therapy is wonderful, groups can be more impactful due to the power of collective healing. It can be used alongside individual therapy offering a cheaper therapy option. Group sessions are $100 and will likely start Fall 2023. Occasional in-person meetups are likely for those in the Phoenix area.
