Amanda Sladky

Therapist

Virtual • Mississippi


I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the state of Mississippi and the state of Michigan.

I received my bachelor’s degree from the University of Mississippi (Hotty Toddy!) and my Master of Arts in Counseling from Reformed Theological Seminary. Before moving to Jackson, Miss. for graduate school, I worked with Cru (a campus ministry) for three years on the Ole Miss campus.

While living in Oxford, I also worked as the Administrative Assistant at Grace Bible Church of Oxford for two years.

Through receiving counseling in my own life, my desire grew to sit with and serve those experiencing darkness, hardship, or hurt in their own life. I want to utilize my life experience and education to walk alongside my clients as they uncover and develop their own internal resources.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Ridgeland

Searching for therapists in Ridgeland starts with finding someone whose training matches what you want support with. People often look for therapy for concerns like anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, stress, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare therapists, review their listed specialties and approach to care. Some therapists may focus on cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, family therapy, or other methods that can help you understand whether their style fits your needs.

In a smaller city like Ridgeland, the number of local in-person therapists may be more limited than in larger metro areas. Looking at nearby areas like Madison and Flowood can expand your options, and virtual therapy can give you access to more Mississippi-licensed therapists from home. Before booking, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios can also help you compare communication style, areas of focus, and what to expect in a first session.

Therapy in Ridgeland can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, verify your benefits, and see your estimated cost before booking. You can browse therapists in Ridgeland, review profiles, and book directly when you’re ready.

If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
