Hi, I’m Amanda. I am an Occupational Therapist that is passionate about helping individuals across the lifespan reach their maximum potential and independence in their daily activities. I believe that every individual, regardless of their circumstances, is worthy of living a full and meaningful life. You may be having difficulty transitioning into new life roles, struggling with regulating your emotions, or need someone to help you rediscover your interests and purpose. I would love to be a part of your journey and help you find what brings your life meaning, joy, and peace.

My work as a therapist is guided by the humanist theory that people can heal and grow if they have assistance that is genuine, empathetic, and accepting. I believe that when we accept ourselves exactly as we are, then we can find the strength to change behaviors that are not serving us. I specialize in working with people who have substance use, anxiety, depression, and interpersonal conflict issues. The approaches I use are informed by dialectic behavioral therapy (DBT), cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), neurobiology, motivational interviewing, positive psychology, attachment theory, family systems theory, and EMDR.

Hi, I’m Kaylin. I’m an Occupational Therapist who is passionate about helping individuals across the life span develop life and work skills, emotional regulation techniques, sensory strategies, interpersonal skills, and grow into a life that brings joy and fulfillment. You may be dealing with difficulties adapting to current life demands or transition periods, struggle with sensory sensitivities, find difficulty with parenting, or are just ready for a hands-on skill and activity-based approach to therapy. Let’s work together to figure out what brings you meaning, independence, and stability in your life.

I have 25+ years of experience helping people, like yourself, to overcome stress and obstacles that prevent us from celebrating our relationships and our lives. If you want a professional in your corner to listen and help you navigate - then I would be honored to be a resource for you. I offer support and guidance - even gently challenge you at times - but you will be the one who decides what course of action you want to take with your life.

I love to work with clients who feel stuck in unhealthy relationships or habits. Many of my clients tell me that they have a hard time opening up, or that they did not think therapy would help them. I appreciate the struggle of unhealthy patterns, toxic relationships, or finding one’s path; and I’m honored to have the opportunity to support individuals who want to better understand themselves, heal, and grow. My clients leave therapy feeling hopeful, supported, and empowered to meet their goals.

Are you ready to take the next step that can change your life for the better? Are feelings of anger, shame, anxiety or depression weighing you down? Are the memories of your past preventing you from stepping into your future? Do you want to feel better? There is hope for you, and your life matters! I am dedicated to helping people get through the tough times. I am here to provide acceptance and encouragement for you to grow and change.

Unfortunately, I am not currently accepting any new clients at this time. "BE STRONG because things will get better. It may be stormy now, but it never lasts forever." Strength is something we all need help with at times. It is my goal to guide clients through stressful and difficult times in order to help them develop the skills and perspective necessary to manage the constant struggles life hands us all. Anxiety, Depression, Anger, Regret, Guilt, Shame and Addiction are things that can be coped with in order to move on.

"Speak in such a way that others love to listen to you and listen in such a way that others love to speak to you." We are all going through own our journey through life and many times the path ahead feels and appears impossible. Or maybe there is so much damage from a road that blew up on you and now you can't see which way to go. No matter what age, we can all find pieces of our life that we can control and influence positively even in the midst of impossibility. Anxiety, anger, family conflict, behavioral issues, blended families, stress management. trauma, depression, and the list goes on of things that can impair our daily life.

As a temperament counselor, I teach people their inborn nature. What are your natural strengths and weaknesses? Once a client understands their temperament traits we can develop a working plan to get their needs met in healthier/live giving ways through identifying positive life choices and minimizing those choices that have lead to more painful/destructive outcomes.

Therapy is more than talking about the past. It is a safe, non-judgmental atmosphere in which past hurts are resolved and healing takes place. Traumatic experiences can serve as blocks, preventing present and future peace.  At Wilkinson Family Therapy, we enjoy connecting with our clients as they travel along their journey. Through intentionality and training, we create a comfortable, supportive space for our clients to grow and process their experiences.

In my personal and professional life, I have found one thing to be true: Life can be hard. I have a passion for supporting others in resolving pain and reclaiming fullness in life. While pain is an inevitable part of the human experience, suffering is optional. I am dedicated to helping individuals, couples, and families heal from relational and other traumas, problematic sexual behaviors, addictions, and intimacy disorders. I see men and women whose lives have spiraled out of control become desperate for help. I see brokenhearted adults and children as they learn to cope with an unstable world. My heart is to heal the broken hearted and give hope where hope was once lost.

Accepting new clients! Every name has a story and every story is worth telling. Finding the best fit for a new therapist can be challenging and scary as you step into a place of vulnerability. We all experience challenging seasons and chapters in our lives and sometimes we need support and guidance to navigate through them. I'm passionate about helping people write their own stories, learn how to move through emotions, embrace where they are at, and gain the skills to thrive and live life abundantly.

My ideal client would have a healthy dose of honestness, openness, and willingness. I don't expect for my clients to have specific goals or outcomes in the beginning, but an awareness that they want something to be different. Some of the issues I've worked with extensively over the years have been related to recovery from addiction, helping loved one's of an addict, co-dependency, trauma, and navigating an individual's emotions and how to understand and express them in a healthier way. It's about breaking away from insanity and moving toward serenity.

Life can challenge us in the most difficult ways, make us feel lost, hopeless, scared. This is when I come in to help. Through struggles you have held onto for your entire life to events that have just happened, I look to help find paths to peace. I provide empathy and clarity to identify your true self. I believe we all have the capability to thrive and live a meaningful life, no matter the circumstances we have endured. I hope to help you find your path and motivate your journey in a positive way. Let's work together to help achieve your therapeutic goals.
