My career path affords me nuanced understanding of higher education, law, healthcare, working/living abroad, and the impact of administrative investigations
My style is relational - warm, friendly, authentic, and direct. I participate actively and offer a holistic, trauma-informed approach, incorporating client-centered, strengths-based, solution-focused, mindfulness, and other strategies depending on client needs.

Hi! I'm Amanda! I specialize in creating healing spaces for Black and Brown folks to slow down, reflect, and heal. I especially love working with young people, creatives, educators, activists, and healers. They're usually people who are used to holding a lot, and are ready for a space where they get to be held. You might be navigating anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or life transitions. Or maybe you’re feeling burned out and looking for support navigating life as a Black or Brown person in a world that often feels overwhelming, heavy, and at times, on fire.

Whether it be work, sex, relationships or a relative's mental health struggle - I can tackle it with psychoanalysis, couples counseling, career coaching or sex therapy.
Modern relationships are HARD. It’s a struggle to find the right person OR to wonder if your current partner is possibly the wrong person. It’s tough when you feel burned by or totally confused about your path. Maybe you’ve even made choices or overlooked things you now regret. Or, maybe it’s a relationship with a boss or coworkers who undervalue you or play favorites with others. Your work ethic and good ideas have long taken a backseat to putting out fires or just avoiding things way more than you should. You’re past thinking that life’s fair. But, you never thought that things could go THIS wrong or get under your skin THIS much.

I specialize in providing restoration-centered therapy for Black women recovering from lives organized around survival, burnout, chronic responsibility, perfectionism, over-functioning, and disconnection. You may be tired of always being the strong one; the person everyone depends on, who carries the mental load, keeps going, feels guilt for resting and rarely feels permission to need. You may be successful and capable, yet exhausted, resentful, disconnected, or unsure of what you need. In therapy, we examine the survival patterns, relationships, cultural messages, and systems that taught you to over-function.

My ideal clients have recently experienced a traumatic event(s) and need a safe, supportive, and knowledgeable environment to process and heal. I guide clients through this stage by helping regulate the nervous system and stabilize and adjust life to prioritize functionality through symptoms. I help clients process their trauma deeply, appropriately, and safely using evidence-based trauma treatments, including EMDR. They have experienced complex trauma (childhood trauma, abuse, neglect, relationship trauma, trauma related to ongoing war/natural disasters/mass causality, etc.)

I deeply understand the mental toll of constant overthinking, decision fatigue, and the weight of managing other people's perceptions of you. I also understand wanting to move from this state of being into a life that feels more meaningful, whole, and intentional. For me, the first step of therapy is building a genuine connection with my clients. Together we will create a supportive and open therapy space where you can easily work through your mental clutter and anxiety, while also developing lasting change.

My approach is warm and inviting. I am client-centered and passionate about helping you to get "un stuck" and discover a path forward in alignment with your heart's longing. I offer a non-judgmental, warm, and inviting space for you to get curious about your life, your decisions, your pain, and old patterns of living that no longer serve you. I believe that often we have to go towards our pain in order to find clarity, resolution, awareness, and healing.

Hello, I'm Natt. Let’s talk about what’s right with you—not what’s wrong. I believe therapy should be a space where you feel empowered, not picked apart. My focus is on helping you uncover your strengths, build resilience, and move through life with more clarity and confidence. And yes, we can even add some laughter in the mix—because healing doesn’t always have to be heavy. Together, we’ll do meaningful work in a way that feels authentic, supportive, and maybe even a little fun.

The pressure is relentless. So is the feeling that you're facing it alone. Maybe there's a constant hum of anxiety, a loneliness that lingers even when you have people around. You've tried things. They help, until they don't. Fair warning: I'm not what most people expect. But then again, neither are most of my clients. The bigger surprise, for most of them, is that something finally works. The medication that was supposed to fix it — didn't. Suggesting more journaling about it felt like an insult. I get it.

We are warm and kind, boldly working with you in a natural, human way. We clarify how you think and feel, and we don't avoid the hard stuff. We won't let you get away with that, which will be a little uncomfortable sometimes, but we're going to work together to get to the real truth with you... the real truth about how you think and feel and what is behind why your life feels the way that it does.

Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, LCPC, MA
Baltimore, MD 21215
I strongly live with a great call to reach beyond self and understand that suffering can be our greatest asset. If we have the capacity to learn and grow from our experiences we have the capacity to improve our lives, improve our families, and improve our communities. As a African American, father, son, uncle and brother, from bondage to slavery, the phases of change, bring new hope, change that lasts, forsake old behaviors and do things differently. A value-based life is fulfilled life, people live out their lives in line with their values, it engenders a sense of well-being, in multiple communities, building better relationships.
