I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, practicing in the Atlanta area since 2006. I have a passion for helping people regain control over their lives after experiencing difficult events that have impacted how they see the world and themselves. My philosophy in therapy is that you are your own expert on your life and hold the key to making changes that you want. It is my role and privilege, as your therapist, to walk along side of you, providing support and assisting you with tools that you can carry with you on your journey.

This occurs within a collaborative, empowering, and respectful relationship between us that involves authentic compassion, warmth, transparency, and nonjudgment.

Hi, I'm Amanda and as a counselor I am passionate about exploring the past to understand how it is impacting the present and informing the future. I enjoy working with people to develop the necessary skills to handle day to day stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and more. I see clients that are 13 years old and up. One thing that I find in common with most of my clients is the desire to be heard, seen, and appreciated. My goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable to come as you are so that you may learn, heal, and grow into the person you want to be.

How does safe space, acceptance just as you are, and conversation in which you feel met affect you? Do you find you are better able to say what’s really going on when carefully listened to and with no rush? I believe therapy is an opportunity to pause in the busy life we usually live to explore what we really think and feel. It is also a chance to explore your strengths, what is working, and what is getting in your way. Together we seek to hear your inner wisdom speak more and more distinctly. I am here to offer you a grounded, secure presence for the work you have come to do.

You are struggling to feel connected to yourself and your loved ones, have difficulty managing the different aspects of your life or are experiencing a hard time coping with past events. You seem to have trouble recognizing who you are today, feel like your emotions are overwhelming and are missing a sense of peace. One thing is for sure: you’re ready for some relief. You’re ready to find the clarity and confidence in your decision making and move through life with more ease and comfort. Most of all, you’re ready to find joy and acceptance in the day-to-day again. You’re ready for a new “normal”, and I can help you get there.

I specialize in working with adults who have trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression, grief, stress, and relationship issues. Often when we experience difficult life events, we hold our upsetting memories vividly in our thoughts, beliefs, emotions, and even in our bodies. We revisit the painful past again and again, stuck in negativity and unable to simply talk our way out of the distress. I help my clients to access and process, at a deeper level, these experiences, using effective, evidence-based modalities that work. We clear out the painful past to make room for the joyful, fulfilled, self-actualized life they yearn for and deserve.

Your problems may be specific - a challenging relationship, sexual concerns, upsetting memories, or problem behaviors. Or your struggles may be less tangible - feeling lost, detached, or stuck. In my practice, I offer adult and couples therapy for a range of concerns. I specialize in treating sexual dysfunctions, trauma-related issues, relationship concerns, and problem behaviors. I also provide gender & sexual identity affirming care. I deeply enjoy helping individuals feel a greater sense of self-efficacy, confidence, and clarity in their lives.
