Parenting Therapists in The Villages, FL

Hi! I am Amanda, a child and family therapist with Silver River Counseling. I have a passion for helping children, adolescents, and adults repair and strengthen relationships. I view things through an Adlerian (Individual Psychology) lens and believe strongly in building an egalitarian relationship in the therapeutic process. Everyone processes their life experiences differently, so I develop an individualized approach tailored to what you or your child may need. Whether you are seeking supervision, consultation, or need a therapist to help you navigate through the challenges of being a helper, I am here.

If you could make one thing better or different in your life, what would it be? Would it be to learn healthy coping skills to better cope with anxiety or stressors? Would it be parenting skills to add to your parenting tool box? Would it be pre-marital counseling to not only receive that discount in FL for FL marriage licenses, but to learn about yourself and your partner more? Taking the first step in seeking therapy is often the most difficult, intimidating and stress inducing, and your mental health is worth it all! You are worth taking the first step in getting what you need out of therapy. This is your journey, so step out!
