She supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, addiction concerns, and grief.

In sessions she combines several methods to fit each person’s needs. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and take small steps toward them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used for breaking patterns that fuel anxiety and low mood. Elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy and attachment-informed work appear when people need emotion regulation skills or are navigating relationship hurts.
Amanda has experience supporting issues related to trauma, substance use, mood disorders, and family-of-origin concerns. She also helps with caregiving stress, adoption and foster care matters, and questions of intimacy and commitment. Her approach emphasizes listening first, then building practical tools together.
