One of life’s constants is that things are always changing. If you are feeling overwhelmed by a new season of life, or are ready to change your approach to a situation you’ve been in for awhile, therapy can be a really helpful tool to navigate those challenges. It’s hard enough to go through life transitions like career changes, parenting, caregiving, retirement, aging, chronic health conditions, grief/loss; then add in high stress, little sleep, symptoms of depression or anxiety–it’s a lot to manage!

Hello, I'm Amanda. For over 20 years I've walked alongside people through every kind of mental health journey—from crisis moments in psychiatric hospitals to steady, hopeful growth in outpatient settings. My favorite thing is helping adults rediscover their strength, heal old wounds, and build lives that feel lighter and more joyful. I bring a calm, creative, down-to-earth energy to every conversation. I'm also a mom, grandma, and wife—balancing real life just like you do. Those experiences help me truly connect with people from every background and walk of life.

Currently accepting new clients - Hi there! My therapeutic approach is to show up through a relational lens where what matters most is genuine and safe connection. Our stories contain both what happens to us that is outside of our control and how we respond to these experiences that is within our control. As your therapist, my hope is to empower you to choose how you respond and become the author of your own story. It's important to me to provide you with the support, guidance, and resources you need to pick up the pen and decide where you're going next.

I work with adults across diverse relationships and identities. I currently have openings and can often see you within days.

I have provided insight-oriented psychotherapy to individuals in the valley for over 15 years now. I believe it is important to carefully tailor therapy to the needs of each individual client and in cooperation with the client. My orientation is predominantly Jungian and my roots are in Depth Psychology, providing the foundation for most of my therapeutic work. Eastern contemplative psychology is also frequently integrated into the treatment. I have experience treating individuals struggling with life questions or transitions, depression, anxiety, substance abuse or self-esteem issues.

As a psychotherapist deeply engaged in the realms of Internal Family Systems (IFS), trauma work, psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy, and integrative practices such as yoga and massage therapy, my professional journey is characterized by a holistic and multidimensional approach to healing. I am dedicated to creating a safe and supportive environment where clients can explore their inner selves, fostering self-awareness and emotional resilience. Central to my practice is the belief that trauma and internal conflicts are not obstacles to be overcome but rather integral aspects of the human experience that can lead to profound growth.

Looking capable on the outside doesn't always match feeling okay on the inside. This disconnect can show up as persistent health stress or physical symptoms—your body's way of holding onto past experiences. It might also look like feeling stuck in difficult relationship patterns or struggling to make decisions that align with what you truly want. These patterns often have deep roots in family history, showing up as a habit of prioritizing others' needs over your own. This can lead to a quiet, draining cycle of low-grade anxiety and fatigue, leaving you disconnected from your body and your own intuition.

My person-centered approach allows me to connect easily with others. Whether it is your first time or you are therapy-experienced, I will take the time to get to know you, explore your unique perspective, and discover what it is you are hoping to address through therapy. As to an ideal client, I don't believe there is such a thing. What is most important is to find a good fit between the client and the therapist. Having a good, trusting therapy relationship is the best predictor of positive change. Wherever you are, whatever you are struggling with, I will work to help you achieve your goals.

I'm a Harvard and Stanford-trained psychologist who helps people with anxiety stop pushing through stress and burnout and live more. Are you so good at pushing through problems that no one notices how much you're struggling? If nothing changed, life would be just plain overwhelming...feeling lost and trapped... and suffocated. It’s miserable feeling like anxiety is taking over, interfering with relationships, work, and feeling just burned out. If you’re here, you can likely relate. We'll work together to create a life you don't dread. Follow me on Instagram - sitwithdrbrit for relatable mental health content.

Are you feeling stuck in life, even though objectively things are pretty good? Do you spend more time than you would like to admit overthinking & spiraling about life's uncertainties? Do you feel like things aren’t “bad enough” for therapy, yet you are navigating big life transitions and want a thoughtful space to explore what these changes mean for you? Whether professional or personal, big or small, life transitions tend to stir up deeper questions of identity, purpose, and belonging.
I'm passionate about helping people thrive in the two areas that shape their lives most: career & relationships.

Do you ever feel like you’re just going through the motions? Have you felt like life is passing you by, but you just can’t seem to catch up? I will work with you to address the patterns in your life that keep you from feeling fulfilled or living authentically. It can be intimidating to tackle things like anxiety, trauma, or addiction—but you don’t have to do it alone.

I tend to be sought out by those who have had negative experiences in childhood whether defined as trauma, neglect, or general emotional inattention or wounding. This often looks like feeling nervous about good things happening because one wonders when the other foot is going to drop, or always saying "yes" when the answer is "no." My patients often remark how our sessions can feel like a natural conversation, putting themselves at ease when trying therapy for the first time. This leads to comfort and safety for the deeper work of exploring unconscious defenses and ways one might be getting in the way of their own growth.

I work with individuals and couples who are navigating anxiety, OCD, trauma, and relationship challenges. Many feel overwhelmed, stuck in repetitive patterns, or disconnected in their relationships. They’re looking for practical tools, deeper understanding, and meaningful change—not just short-term relief.

I know that I feel my best when I’m secure in my relationships: with myself, my spouse, my children, and community. This has created a practice for me of paying attention, listening and participating in conversations that both nurture and challenge these relationships. I will create a space, through our relationship, for you to do the same. And if it is your child that is seeking that safe space my playroom invites curiosity and emotions of all sorts. It is a safe space to work through trauma; with play as the language and toys as tools, and a soft spot to land when it gets hard and scary.

Life is an adventure! Some days sparkle with ease and other times it feels we may have lost our way or are unsure how to move forward. Life may have brought you many challenges including marriage or parenthood, maybe caring for an elderly parent, or navigating an "empty nest" and reconnecting as a couple or even the inevitable experience of illness or great loss. When we must face what feels unbearable or move through trying transitions, we can choose not to walk through them alone. Therapy can offer that helping hand in finding a different direction, new ways of thinking or improving relationships.
