My Services

As a licensed psychotherapist and Clinical Social Worker with over 21 years of
experience, I offer compassionate and professional support to individuals
navigating life’s challenges and personal adversity. I specialize in working with
women on issues such as trauma, anxiety, life transitions, parenting, and spiritual
growth. My practice is informed by a variety of therapeutic techniques, including
somatic resourcing (drawing on the mind-body connection), Eye Movement
Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Internal Family Systems (IFS),
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), mindfulness practices, and
spiritual exploration. I work with adults in all walks of life—tailoring my approach
to meet each client’s unique needs and fostering a safe, supportive space for
healing and personal growth.

I offer virtual sessions and walk-and-talk therapy for those interested.

Meet Amanda

I deeply respect and honor the diversity of every individual and strive to create an
inclusive and welcoming environment for all clients, regardless of gender, sexual
orientation, ethnicity, nationality, religion, or belief.

I believe that everyone has the right to pursue happiness and healing, and I
would be truly honored to work with you. Together, we can explore your path
forward, addressing your challenges and supporting you as you embrace growth,
change, and well-being.

My Approach

My primary focus in therapy is to create a space where all clients feel valued,
respected, and safe. I consider it a privilege to support individuals as they
explore their hopes, dreams, fears, and anxieties, helping them to move toward a
life that is authentically aligned with their core values. Many of my clients
consistently report feeling truly heard and seen in our sessions together, which I
believe is essential to fostering meaningful growth and healing.

Insurance & Fees

I am in network with Blue Cross Blue Shield (excluding BCBS Local plans),
MedCost, Aetna, Cigna, Anthem, United Health Care (UHC), and Medicare. I
also offer a SuperBill to clients if I am considered out of network with their
insurance plan.

If you prefer to pay privately or discuss a sliding scale rate, please reach out to
me directly.

Good Faith Estimate: You’re entitled to a good faith estimate. This requires
healthcare professionals to provide uninsured or self pay clients a “good faith
estimate” for the cost of their health care prior to receiving services. This will
show the cost of items or services reasonably expected at the time of your
service. If you receive a bill for more than $400 above the estimate, you can
dispute the bill.
