Introducing Compassion
Drawing from her background as a veteran, Amanda has a unique perspective on the challenges faced by those who serve, and she is particularly attuned to the needs of veterans. However, her expertise extends across the lifespan, as she works with individuals from children to older adults, addressing a wide range of concerns including ADHD, anxiety, depression, and trauma. Amanda’s approach is rooted in evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), all while maintaining a strength-based, trauma-focused, and culturally sensitive lens.
​
Amanda specializes in perinatal therapy, offering compassionate support to individuals navigating the emotional and mental health challenges surrounding pregnancy, postpartum, and the transition to parenthood. She provides a safe, understanding space to address concerns like mood changes, bonding, birth trauma, and adjustment to new roles. With Amanda’s guidance, clients can work through these unique experiences, creating a path toward healing, balance, and connection in this transformative stage of life.

Amanda is committed to creating a therapeutic environment where clients feel safe, supported, and understood. She believes that the foundation of effective therapy is a strong therapeutic alliance, and she strives to build these connections with empathy and respect.
