Hi! I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Pennsylvania. I received my Masters from Philadelphia University and have been practicing for the past 9 years. I help people of all ages struggling with anxiety, depression, self-esteem and any other general life stresses. I am passionate about helping others evolve and grow to live in the best possible version of themselves.
Hello and welcome! I am a Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with advanced training through a competitive 1-year fellowship program to help me become a better provider. I have a background as a Psychiatric Registered Nurse in inpatient behavioral health.
Healing Across the Lifespan: A Partnership in Mental Wellness
Choosing a mental health provider is a deeply personal decision. You aren’t just looking for a prescriber; you are looking for a witness to your story, an expert in the biological complexities of the brain, and a partner in your recovery.
My name is Jessica Stanley, and I am a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC). My journey to this practice has been defined by a unique duality: the macro view of a healthcare executive and the micro focus of a dedicated clinician. Before opening the doors to this practice, I served as the Clinical Director for a large-scale healthcare organization. In that role, I was responsible for the oversight of complex systems, the mentorship of large clinical teams, and the implementation of evidence-based protocols across diverse populations.
While my time in leadership allowed me to impact mental health at a systemic level, my true passion has always remained in the quiet, transformative moments of the exam room. I have returned to full-time clinical practice to bring that high-level expertise back to where it matters most: the individual human experience.
Mental health does not exist in a vacuum, nor does it look the same at age seven as it does at seventy. I specialize in treating patients across the entire lifespan. Whether I am working with a child struggling to navigate their first years of school, an adolescent facing the pressures of identity formation, or an adult managing the heavy mantle of career and family, my approach remains the same: comprehensive, compassionate, and evidence based.
Areas of Specialization
I am trained to treat a broad spectrum of psychiatric conditions including:
ADHD & Neurodivergence
Anxiety Disorders
Depression
PTSD & Trauma Recovery
I am a licensed clinical social worker in FL, Idaho, Virginia; licensed independent clinical social worker in Massachusetts, Minnesota, and Rhode Island.
I graduated from Barry University in 2014 and have been working within the mental health and hospital field since.
I enjoy helping others overcome the challenges life throws at them. With the right mindset, support and environment, I believe change is possible.
I provide psychotherapy services to individuals in a collaborative, supportive, and safe environment.
I do NOT currently offer couples or family therapy.*
I received my master’s degree from Columbia University in the City of New York and am an independently licensed Clinical Social Worker in Rhode Island and Massachusetts, with over 25 years of clinical experience. I would describe myself as energetic, empathic, and positive, with a good sense of humor. I believe in a client-centered approach and am committed to meeting my clients where they are in their lives. I am fluent in English, Mandarin Chinese, and Taiwanese.

Hi There!
I am Amanda and I have been a practicing Therapist since 2016. I have a wide range of experience including: Treatment Resistant Depression and Anxiety, PTSD, and Grief and Loss.
I am warm, patient, and direct. I want to help you make the most of life and develop faith in yourself to overcome life challenges and turn them for good.
I graduated from University of Southern California with my MSW in Social Work in 2014. I have been a school social worker in San Diego County and then in Rhode Island since 2014. I love helping youth navigate anxiety, big feelings, and the pressures of being a teen. I am also a mom of three young kids. This has led me to be passionate about helping women as they navigate becoming a mother, and their transition into this role.

They’re not afraid to be challenged and are open to connecting their current struggles with earlier life experiences. They want lasting change, not quick fixes — and they’re ready to do the work.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Providence
Finding therapists in Providence starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. People often look for therapy for anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, stress, life transitions, or trauma. As you compare therapists Providence, read for more than credentials. A therapist’s bio can show their listed specialties, therapy style, and experience with approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, or trauma-informed care.
Providence has a smaller local market than many major cities, so availability may vary by neighborhood, schedule, and appointment format. If you prefer in-person counseling in Providence, RI, consider office location, commute time, parking, and access from areas like Federal Hill, Downtown, the East Side, or College Hill. Virtual therapy can also expand your options across Rhode Island when local openings are limited. Before booking, review whether a therapist is accepting new patients, offers times that fit your calendar, and provides a free phone consultation so you can get a clearer sense of fit.
Therapy in Providence can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you find therapists Providence, RI, review profiles, verify insurance, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking. You can browse therapists, psychologists, and other mental health professionals who match your needs, accept a wide range of insurance plans, and may be accepting new patients.
