Hello and welcome! My name is Amanda and I have been in the field as a therapist for almost 14 years.

Therapy can provide a powerful opportunity for self-understanding and balance restoration which ultimately leads to growth and emotional healing. My goal as a therapist is to create a safe and trusted space with clients to help them begin to identify problematic patterns and explore healthy, effective coping skills.

There are many issues we may explore in therapy: anxiety, depression, eating disorders, body image, grief/loss and life transitions among others.
