Have you ever felt depressed, anxious, or not good enough? Do you ever wonder how to move past a traumatic incident from your past? I work with a variety of issues including depression, anxiety, PTSD, self-esteem, grief, and addictions. I am caring, empathic, and hope to help you become the best version of yourself, so that you can live your most fulfilling future! I use a variety of interventions including CBT, DBT, Person-centered focus, solution-based focus, and mindfulness. I decided to become a mental health counselor after becoming a law enforcement officer. I found that the mental health and addictions were not being properly addressed, and many “offenders” needed rehabilitation and therapy, not jail and prison. I have now worked in the mental health/addictions field since 2015. I love being able to help someone realize their full potential, become the best version of themselves, and lead a happy life.

Amanda is very responsive anytime I need her, and she is very personable. It is helpful having an outside perspective on what's going on in your personal life. She will send over links to documents related to your conversation and coping mechanisms for specific needs.

Amanda has helped me to understand my underlying issue better. She holds me accountable by asking or reminding me when I bring up concerns in my life. She is a genuine soul and offers solutions applicable to real life situations.
