I'm not a regular therapist—I'm a cool therapist. You'll likely find me using humor in sessions because it's one of my favorite coping skills (when it's appropriate). I strive to create a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where you can feel comfortable being yourself.

Helping others has always been my passion, and I love supporting clients as they create meaningful changes in their lives. I also value learning and believe that knowledge can be a powerful tool for growth, so don't be surprised if I recommend a book or two during our time together.

I specialize in working with clients experiencing anxiety, ADHD, PTSD, substance use concerns, burnout, and adjustment disorders or other life transitions. I also love supporting new moms as they navigate the perinatal period and the unique challenges that can come with it.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master of Social Work from Walden University and a Bachelor of Social Work from Norfolk State University. My clinical experience spans emergency departments, hospitals, and community-based behavioral health settings, where I have supported adults navigating depression, anxiety, life transitions, substance use concerns, and complex medical or psychiatric challenges.

Welcome,

I am Amanda Wheeler, owner for HealTHY Mind PLLC. A bit about me; I have over 15 years experience of working with families and children. More recently, my work has been primarily with perinatal mothers experiencing depression, anxiety and social isolation. I support natural remedies such as nutrition, exercise, support systems, and meditation in addition to talk therapy and medication management.

Specializing in:

• Depression
• Anxiety
• Panic Attacks
• Postpartum Wellness
• Parenting
• Natural Remedies

I'm a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner (SEP) — one of a relatively small number of therapists trained directly through Dr. Peter Levine's institute — and a certified partner trauma specialist through APSATS. That combination means I work with two kinds of clients who often struggle to find the right therapist: people whose anxiety, PTSD, or grief isn't responding to traditional talk therapy, and partners navigating the devastating aftermath of betrayal and infidelity.After 15 years, I've learned that the body holds what words can't always reach. My work is rooted in that understanding — and in deep respect for how much courage it takes to begin.

As a single mom of color, I have witnessed the extreme societal pressure placed on mothers to choose between their career or their children; leaving little room to even provide attention to their own self care. This ignited a passion within me to use my skills to support women to navigate through the chaos. My goal is to work with those women who may need help coping through these very real everyday stressors. Not a mom? That's ok! I can also empathize with the pressure placed on women of color in the workplace to work so much harder than their male counterparts. Its my hope to create a safe space for you to explore these feelings.

It can be challenging at times for women to have access to a therapist who can empathize with their experiences. Through a strengths based approach, I would love to share my personal experience with being a woman of color, a mom, a Christian, as well as a goal oriented professional in non-profit leadership and mental health.

Through this journey, I want you to find a sense of fulfillment, purpose, and self worth and I would be honored to take that walk with you. Our sessions will not be for me to "social work" you, but for you to unload some of the pressure and burden to make the ride a bit easier. No matter what it feels like, you got this... you can do this!

Hi, I'm Kimberly. I work with adults carrying anxiety, depression, trauma, or substance use, often alongside each other. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), I draw on my clinical background to help you understand what you're bringing into each session and build goals that fit your life. I'd love to be part of your next step forward.

I am a client-centered therapist who works with individuals navigating stress, life transitions, and emotional challenges, using a collaborative and supportive approach to foster growth and resilience.

Over eleven years I have worked with a wide range of clients, which means very little of what you bring will be unfamiliar to me. Maybe you are managing anxiety that puts you in fight or flight, a low mood that will not lift, the demands of ADHD, or a health condition that has quietly reshaped your life. Whatever brings you here, I start from what is already working

in your life rather than from what is broken. You do not need the right words or a clear diagnosis to begin. If that sounds like the support you are looking for, I would be glad to hear from you.

I am a warm, compassionate therapist with over 10 years of experience working in mental health with both children and adults. Throughout my career, I have supported individuals and families through moments of crisis, transition, and growth, always centering care that is human, respectful, and collaborative. I strive to create a space where clients feel safe, heard, and understood—whether they are navigating acute stress, long-standing challenges, or simply seeking greater clarity and connection in their lives. My approach is grounded in empathy, practical support, and a deep belief in each person’s capacity for resilience and change. Firmly LGBTQ+ affirming and committed to anti-fascist, anti-oppressive care.
