Hi! I'm Amanda. I work primarily with teens and adults of all ages. I offer virtual appointments only. I work primarily with teens and adults anxiety, depression, OCD, ADHD, autism, life transitions, relationships and LGBTQIA2S+ identities. I specialize in sex/sexuality and am a kink/BDSM affirming provider, offering a compassionate, affirming, and nonjudgmental space to explore identity, sexuality, and relationships. My goal is to support you as you adapt to challenges, grow through transitions, and celebrate wins—big and small! I believe that therapy is your space, and my role is to meet you exactly where you are. I approach our work together with curiosity, creating a supportive and affirming environment where you can feel safe to explore life’s challenges and opportunities. My goal is to walk alongside you, offering compassion, insight, and respect every step of the way. My goal is to support you as you adapt to challenges, grow through transitions, and celebrate wins—big and small! My work as a therapist is deeply informed by my personal experiences while caring for a parent. Navigating the inequities and bureaucracy of the healthcare system exposed me to the many barriers families can face when seeking support. This experience fuels my commitment to providing accessible, inclusive and equitable care. Outside of sessions, I enjoy painting, playing piano, and building LEGO sets. Therapy modalities I use: ACT, DBT, IFS, EFT, Mindfulness Modalities: Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and Mindfulness.

College can feel overwhelming when you are managing anxiety, ADHD, burnout, and constant pressure to keep up. I work with college students who feel stressed, overextended, or unsure of their direction. Many are balancing school, relationships, family expectations, and mental health at the same time. Therapy focuses on understanding patterns, building practical coping skills, and improving daily functioning so life feels more manageable and less overwhelming.

Being a student can be tough! Balancing classes, friends, and work while adjusting to a new living situation. Maybe even feeling less confident when we never struggled in that area before. Sometimes we don't recognize that we are struggling with anxiety or depression...and that there is help! If you are struggling with anxiety, depression, self-confidence, difficulties with managing emotions, I can help! You don't need to know how therapy works. We will talk and get to know each other, then sort out together the areas where you can grow strengths to match your new experience.

I work well with many clients, but the following clients would get the most out of scheduling an appointment. A client who is trying to navigate through some significant life changes/stressors and who is clear that things need to change in their lives, but is not sure where to start. A client who needs guidance to steer themselves towards their life goals. I believe that there is seldom a "right way" to achieve a certain outcome, and treatment needs to be tailored to a client's needs. I can offer more structured approaches, such as CBT, or less structured approaches, such as existential therapy.

I believe that health and wellness are best achieved by addressing the whole person, not simply the condition, adverse event or illness/disease. This holistic approach to care respects the individuality of persons, their environments and their physical and emotional needs. The therapeutic relationship is important and necessary in order to move forward in your areas of stagnation. This collaborative effort will allow for exploration when determining which therapeutic approach best matches your identified goals based on symptoms, personality and experiences. My approach is collaborative, warm, engaging and directive. I utilize evidenced based practices and interventions to assist you in meeting your treatment goals and needs. We will develop realistic and obtainable goals along with skill building. Therapy is hard work! Building your best self takes time. I look forward in walking alongside you on this journey.
