Hello there! My name is Amanda Boer and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Southern California. I take a client-centered and humanistic approach to therapy and allow the client to "take the reins" of therapy and find their truest self. This is to empower the client to take control of their own lives. Within the client-centered approach, I additionally use interventions centered on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with the goal of "rewiring" our brain and maladaptive thought patterns.
