Hi there! I’m Amanda, a Licensed Professional Counselor, and I work with individuals who feel like they’re constantly up against the system, navigating injustice, going through major life transitions, or just trying to find healthier ways to cope with it all. Whether you are in the LGBTQIA+ community or other minority communities, I will validated your life experiences. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure of your next step—you’re not alone, and you don’t have to figure it out by yourself.

My approach to therapy is nontraditional, deeply person-centered, and completely focused on you. In our sessions, we’ll talk about what’s happening in your life right now as well as your past—especially your childhood—to explore how those experiences may be shaping your current thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Together, we’ll build coping strategies that not only make sense in the therapy room, but actually work in your everyday life.

My goal is that you leave therapy with a stronger sense of who you are and a deeper understanding of how your mental health connects to every part of your life. You deserve to feel empowered and seen—and I’m here to support you in getting there. Let’s work together to uncover what’s been holding you back and move toward the life you want to create.
