Professional statement

Hi there, my name is Amanda, welcome to my profile:) I am a licensed mental health counselor committed to helping individuals navigate life’s challenges with clarity, resilience, and hope. My practice focuses on solution-focused therapies tailored to people experiencing anxiety, depression, as well as ADHD and OCD. I work collaboratively with clients to uncover strengths, set practical goals, and create change—one step at a time. In addition to traditional mental health care, I offer spiritual counseling for individuals from all faiths and backgrounds.

I've been working in the mental health world for over 10 years now. I have advanced training in Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT) and Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR). I also have training in transpersonal counseling which allows spirituality to enter into the counseling space to promote purpose and meaning.

Message to clients

Reaching out for help can be such an overwhelming and intimating process. I'm so glad that you are! Even if you choose another provider, please know you are doing one of the most beautiful things in life - investing and caring for you! You deserve that!

One of my biggest strengths is understanding and recognizing other's strengths. It's a gift in this world to know where you excel. I promise to help you identify those areas and apply them in lifting you up where you need!

I work with a couple different user-friendly online therapy platforms. This makes it super easy to verify insurance and conduct seamless video calls! When we connect I'll provide those platform links:)
