We help individuals navigating the lasting impact of complex trauma (C-PTSD) and developmental trauma, including social anxiety and relationship patterns shaped by attachment wounds and communication challenges. We support teens and adults in the Houston area with concerns such as anxiety, depression, perfectionism, work–life balance, and healing from childhood trauma and complex family dynamics. Therapy can support increased confidence in social situations, improved motivation, reduced excessive guilt, and skills for managing academic or work-related stress, fears of abandonment, people-pleasing patterns, and boundary-setting.
My passion is working with others who grew up in abuse, neglect, or with other forms of trauma. We often see our pasts show up when workplace dynamics, social situations, and relationships trigger behaviors and patterns we wish they didn't and we may become defensive, anxious, people-pleasing, or wonder about co-dependency. If this is you, I'm here to help.
All political, cultural, and religious, views are welcome in our office without judgement. Come as you are. Zen the Therapy Cat is available to join sessions upon request. Call for a free consultation and visit our website for more information on Amanda and our other therapists. We accept several insurance plans. Self pay rates range $75-135.

Treatment, including the methods and frequency of our sessions, is tailored to you, your comfort level, and your individual needs. Often healing looks like telling your story, identifying the impacts of the past along the way, understanding patterns and behaviors you developed, and introducing new ways of looking at things.

Trauma happens when we are not in control and it heals when we are. Sessions are primarily person centered - you have choice, agency, and consent - but may also include elements of psychodynamic therapy, narrative therapy, CBT, and existential questioning and thought.
