You’ve been carrying a lot on your own for a long time. On the outside you seem like you’re holding it together, but inside you might feel anxious, low, overwhelmed, or weighed down by past experiences and current stress. I’m Amanda, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and EMDR-trained therapist, and I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, major life transitions, and relationship challenges. You don’t need the “right” words or a polished story here—my goal is to offer a warm, grounded space where you feel safe, respected, and truly heard so we can make sense of what’s happening and help you feel more steady and hopeful.

Please do not use the booking function on this page. Call or email me directly for a free 15 minute consultation. Therapy is a "later in life" career for me. I have worked in multiple fields and with people from many backgrounds. Through this I learned that the thread connecting all of us is our desire to be able to respond rather than just react and thrive rather than just survive. What prevents this are the beliefs, experiences, and traumas that often are held in our bodies. It is when we identify and resolve these, we will live and love fully.

As a relational, healing-centered psychotherapist, I work to help my clients discover their own guiding voice, to listen with intent, and to cultivate love and acceptance of their truest nature. In my work with adults, issues like sexuality, spirituality, existentialism, unconscious belief systems, family and partnership, and many more of life's great challenges guide the work of self-exploration.
