Therapy approach
Amanda believes therapy works best when it is tailored to the individual. She integrates different therapeutic approaches based on each client's unique experiences, goals, personality, and needs.
Why do my relationships keep following the same pattern? Questions like that are where the work usually starts. Being understood is the foundation of therapy, but meaningful change often comes from being thoughtfully challenged.
Clients feel seen, accepted, and recognized. Nothing gets moved past before it is genuinely understood.
Amanda offers warmth and compassion alongside honest feedback, helping clients explore patterns and behaviors that may be keeping them stuck.
Where patterns come from, why reactions happen, how experiences shape relationships, and how attachment influences connection.
Deep exploration and self-understanding paired with evidence-based strategies and action-oriented change.
Therapeutic modalities
Amanda helps clients explore the deeper roots of their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors by understanding how past experiences continue to influence the present.
Amanda incorporates CBT strategies to help clients identify unhelpful thought patterns and develop healthier ways of responding to challenges.
Amanda uses attachment-based therapy to explore how early relationships and experiences influence the way we relate to ourselves and others today.
For clients experiencing OCD or anxiety-driven avoidance, Amanda incorporates ERP-informed strategies to help reduce fear-based patterns and build confidence.
The relationship between therapist and client is an important part of the healing process. Amanda creates a collaborative space where clients can experience being understood, challenged, and supported.
Taking the first step toward therapy can feel like a big decision. A consultation is an opportunity to connect, learn more about what you're looking for, and determine whether Amanda's approach feels like the right fit.
