Hello,
I'm so glad that you are looking to take care of yourself and your needs. I have a master's in professional counseling and years of clinical training in trauma, EMDR, and various other topics. I love to help individuals, families, and groups. I help people manage and reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, PTSD, and low self-esteem. I look forward to working with you.
Hello! I'm Amanda Long, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to serving families through compassionate, culturally sensitive mental health care. I earned my Master of Science in Nursing from Walden University and have been practicing as a PMHNP since 2019, with over a decade of nursing experience beginning in 2011. My educational foundation also includes a Bachelor of Arts from the University of Illinois in Springfield, which broadened my understanding of human behavior and community dynamics. My journey in mental health has taken me through diverse settings that have shaped my comprehensive approach to care. I've worked in psychiatric emergency services at a major hospital, 23-hour crisis stabilization units, outpatient clinics, correctional facilities, and forensic mental health centers, including fitness-to-stand-trial evaluations. This varied experience has equipped me to understand mental health from multiple perspectives and meet people wherever they are in their journey, whether they're facing an acute crisis or seeking ongoing support. I specialize in medication management for individuals across the lifespan—from children and adolescents to adults and older adults. My treatment areas include depression, anxiety, ADHD, bipolar disorder, trauma-related conditions, psychotic disorders, and other mental health concerns. I'm experienced in both telehealth and in-person care, making quality psychiatric services accessible and convenient for your lifestyle. What drives me is the belief that everyone deserves competent, caring mental health support that honors their unique background and circumstances. I'm committed to improving the communities I serve, one individual and family at a time, through evidence-based practice combined with genuine human connection. My approach centers on partnership and creating a safe environment for healing. I look forward to supporting you and your family's wellness journey.
In more than 20 years of practice, I've had the good fortune to walk beside many peoplemoving through difficult times and struggle to a place of relief and the recovery of a sense of identity, integrity, and self worth. For many years, I have specialized in helping men and women struggling with Sex Addiction. More recently my work has led me to help Couple's find each other again and to guide them through a range of relationship and recovery related issues. My experience has allowed me to develop an understanding of how to help with many other problems including grief, depression, and anxiety. My approach is always compassionate but solution focused.
I have been working in the recovery field as a therapist since 2019. I have a bachelor's degree in psychology and a master's degree in forensic psychology. I am able to work with dual diagnosis but I specialize in addictive disorders. I have education in the 12 step programs and I work under the idea of emotional sobriety.
My practice is able to see clients for most mental health diagnoses, utilizing most modalities. I specialize in the treatment of addictions and trauma and my experience in these areas is vast. I most enjoy utilizing IFS, EMDR, and AEPD to address these issues. I am EMDRIA certified in EMDR and IFS level I trained.
I have worked in the Psychiatric Mental Health field for 23 years. I have a Master’s degree from the University of Florida and am a licensed Adult Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse practitioner. I provide Psychiatric evaluation, treatment planning, supportive psychotherapy and prescribe Psychiatric medication.
One of the most important aspects of successful treatment is the relationship you create with your therapist. I offer a unique blend of compassion, humor, and sound clinical judgment to foster genuine connections with my patients.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Addiction Therapist in Chandler
Finding addiction therapists in Chandler starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. Addiction care can include support for alcohol use, substance use, gambling, compulsive behaviors, relapse prevention, and the mental health concerns that may come with them. Look for a therapist whose listed specialties and training match what you want to work on. Relevant approaches may include motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy for substance use, harm reduction-informed care, and coordination with a prescriber when medication management is part of your care team.
Chandler has a mix of local therapy offices and virtual options, which can help you find care that fits your schedule and preferences. Some people prefer in-person sessions close to home, work, or school, while others prefer virtual appointments with a therapist who has more specific addiction experience. As you compare therapists, look at appointment availability, whether they offer a free phone consultation, and how they describe their approach. Provider bios can help you see whether a therapist uses non-judgmental language, has experience with recovery that can change over time, and supports goals such as reducing use, staying sober, or addressing related stressors.
Therapy in Chandler can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for therapists, review detailed bios, check estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and filter for addiction-related specialties. That makes it easier to find someone who matches your needs, accepts your plan, and has availability when you’re ready to book.
If you or someone you know is experiencing severe withdrawal symptoms — especially from alcohol or benzodiazepines — talk to a medical provider or seek emergency care before starting outpatient therapy. If you or someone you know is struggling with addiction or substance use and is in a crisis, immediately reach out to:
* 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline — call or text 988 * SAMHSA National Helpline — 1-800-662-HELP (4357), free, confidential, 24/7 * Crisis Text Line — text HOME to 741741
