Hello! My name is Amanda and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) from New York who has been practicing in the mental health field for 6 years now. Throughout my experience and career, I have worked with a number of clients and populations including: children and adolescents; adults; those with developmental disabilities and mild cognitive limitations; those with co-occurring substance abuse issues; LGBTQ+, incarceration/psychiatrically confined populations, and geriatrics. I have specialized in working with those suffering from depression and anxiety, OCD, SPMI, ODD/DMDD, ADHD/ADD, substance abuse issues, personality disorders, cognitive limitations, interpersonal relationship issues via family/friends/significant others, psychosocial stressors, gender dysphoria, eating disorders, women’s reproductive health, and cultural differences. The feedback I receive from clients is that they find me to be caring and nonjudgmental, and they appreciate that I am honest and direct with them. You can expect me to walk with you through whatever difficulties you are facing and help you learn more about yourself and the way you interact with the world. In my clinical experience, I implement therapy modalities such as CBT, strengths-based perspective, psychoanalysis, DBT, talk therapy, and systems theory, to help support the clients multifaceted stressors. I find it helpful to participate in live sessions so that we can get to know each other better. However, I can interact with you in whatever manner you are most comfortable. . A majority of my availability is in the evenings and on the weekends but I check messages at least once during each weekday. If you like what you have read so far, you are more than welcome to contact me for a consultation at your convenience. We can briefly discuss your concerns and you can begin your personal journey towards a happier, healthier, and more balanced you. There is no doubt that asking for help is hard, however, I think counseling is one of the best gifts one can give to themselves! I would be honored to work with you through this stage of your life.

My vast clinical background has assisted in my development as a well-rounded counselor.

I am a Mental health Therapist with over 24years of experience working as a psychotherapist and life coach. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, OCD, and ADHD. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse. My therapy style is empathic, warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with dignity, respect, sensitivity, and compassion, no judging, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychotherapy (talk therapy), psychoeducation and mindfulness. I will tailor our dialog and individualized treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. If you believe the phrase "you are what we think", then life truly stems from your thoughts. But we cannot rely purely on thoughts; we must translate thoughts into words and eventually into actions in order to manifest our intentions. Being in the present to openness, trust, and nonjudgmental I am here to give support encouragement and to empower you. I look forward to working with you!

I look forward to the opportunity to walk this journey together! Let me tell you about myself: I’m a wife, mother to four, and a dog mom! I live in SC but love to travel to see new places and try new things. My favorite place is anywhere with a beach as I love anything involving sunshine and water! Professionally, I am a Board-Certified Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor, and a Licensed Addiction Counselor in the state of South Carolina and have been practicing in the mental health field since 2011. I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in the state of Kansas, a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Georgia, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Washington, a Licensed Professional Counselor in Oregon, and a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in Illinois . I am currently working on my Doctorate of Psychology and was EMDR trained in 2021. I am very person-centered in my work with clients as I believe that you know you better than I know you! My practice is solution-focused as I believe in focusing more heavily on the problems you’re experiencing right now and working together to develop effective strategies for improving not only your current symptoms, but also your overall life satisfaction. I often incorporate Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy at times to help identify problematic thinking and retrain your brain to be more positive! Some other theories I believe in are Positive Psychology and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. I have significant expertise in dealing with adults (18+) who are experiencing the following: various mental illnesses (including but not limited to Schizophrenia, Bipolar Disorder, other Psychotic Disorders, Depression, Anxiety); difficulty adapting to life situations; relationship issues; stress caused by pressure at work or home; grief and loss; self-esteem issues; other difficulties maintaining life balance. I also have experience with addictions issues and am able to help in those areas. I am skilled in aiding others in developing coping skills, interpersonal skills, independent living skills, stress management, personal empowerment and advocacy, healthy leisure habits, and other important life skills. It is important to understand that therapy is about you and what you need, so the process is really driven by the client! My role is to facilitate discussion and prompt new ways of thinking in order to inspire fresh perspectives. :)
