Pacific Islander Therapists in Sandy, UT

Finding a therapist can be difficult. Whether you are seeking someone to help you become a better you, or just someone to vent to, I can help you work toward identifying and celebrating the strengths that will empower you to become the best version of yourself that you can be. This is why I firmly believe that anyone can benefit from therapy.

Offering Telehealth Only. Hi, I'm Amanda! In my practice, I seek to actively listen, validate, and challenge my clients. I meet my clients wherever they are, offering a non-judgemental/unbiased space to foster better self-awareness and learn ways to better cope with life challenges. I enjoy doing individual therapy with young adults and adult clients. I help treat depression, anxiety, relationship issues, pornography addiction, faith crisis, and trauma. Modalities I use often are cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), internal family systems (IFS), and accelerated resolution therapy (ART).

I work with clients experiencing trauma, burnout, and life transitions like divorce. I love to use creativity as a therapeutic way to allow you to express yourself and to make sessions more fun, using art, music/singing, writing, and more. I work with all ages, and have solid experience with kids and teens as well. I use interventions including: CBT, DBT, ACT, ART, IFS, EFT solution focused therapy and Logotherapy. I enjoy working with young adults, adults in life transitions, adoptees, Individuals experiencing Grief, and people looking to heal and create positive change in their lives.

“Someone I loved once gave me a box full of darkness. It took me years to realize, this too was a gift”-Mary Oliver. I believe that as humans our greatest growth comes from our deepest struggles. I have numerous years helping individuals with addiction, trauma and recovery. I have a deep interest in trauma and how it affects our attachments, relationships and how we move in the world. I strive to create a safe environment free of judgement, in which you can communicate your goals and we can work on achieving them in an effective manner.

I'm a firm believer that mental health care is for everyone, no matter what obstacles you're facing. It's my goal to normalize mental health care for all people. Just as you see a doctor multiple times per year, whether you're ill or not, proactive health care is crucial for a healthy, balanced life; the same goes for your mental health. My ideal client is any human being interested in navigating the rivers of their life, no matter the challenge(s) you're facing. My goal is to help you identify and explore your entire and true self. Together, we'll explore your past/present/future to navigate any/all issues and set realistic goals.

Having struggles can be difficult, getting therapy shouldn't be. Depression, anxiety, interpersonal conflict and stress are common, but can be managed. I do not believe in a "one size fits all" approach, but respond to my clients' unique needs and preferences. I am not here to just talk but to help you learn how to cope during that moment and all the other moments for the rest of your life.

Hello, welcome to a friendly, supportive, and personalized space, where you and I can intentionally show up for and tend to what is happening in life right now. This is a space to co-create an environment to nurture your mental, emotional, and spiritual health. Together, we can distinguish between what in your life may be helpful to keep versus what may be helpful to discard. There may be some things that are normal and common to your life that do not support you and your path of health and wellbeing. From there, we can give space to what is emerging in you that wants to be seen, heard, and come alive.
