Therapy Services
Individual Therapy
Amanda is passionate about supporting individuals as they navigate anxiety, life transitions, and relational challenges. She especially enjoys working with young adults (15+), women, and those who feel overwhelmed by worry or stuck in patterns that impact their relationships and sense of self.
Her approach is compassionate, collaborative, and grounded in curiosity. Amanda has advanced training in Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy (EFIT) and has completed Level 1 training in Internal Family Systems (IFS), with plans to pursue full certification. She also incorporates elements of narrative therapy and solution-focused therapy, helping clients reconnect with their inner strengths and move toward meaningful, lasting change.
Family Therapy
Amanda loves working with families and is honored to support them in strengthening their connections and navigating challenges together. She works with families who have children aged 15 and older, creating a safe space where each member feels seen, heard, and valued.
Her work with families is grounded in Emotionally Focused Family Therapy (EFFT), a powerful, research-based model that helps families heal emotional injuries, deepen bonds, and create new patterns of connection. Amanda has completed all levels of EFFT training as is an EFFT supervisor. She brings both skill and heart to this work.
She is inspired by the belief that healing happens in connection.
“When trees grow together, nutrients and water can optimally be divided among them all so that each tree can grow into the best tree it can be… This is because a tree can be only as strong as the forest that surrounds it.”
Couples Therapy
Couples Therapy
Amanda is passionate about working with couples and families at every stage of their journey. She supports premarital couples seeking to build a strong foundation, partners struggling to reconnect, those navigating the painful crossroads of potential separation, and families facing the unique challenges of blending households. Amanda is a kink-aware therapist who welcomes and affirms both traditional and non-traditional relationship structures. She is committed to creating a safe, inclusive space for racially and culturally diverse couples, honoring each relationship’s unique context, strengths, and needs.

Trauma
Discernment Counseling
Amanda offers Intensive Couples Therapy, providing up to 6 hours of focused, in-depth work in a single day. She is especially passionate about partnering with couples who are already working with a therapist but feel stuck or frustrated by slow progress. Together, they use the intensive session to break through barriers, gain new insights, and create momentum before the couple returns to their ongoing weekly therapy.
Intensive therapy is particularly helpful for couples who:
Are on the brink of separation and want to explore options quickly
Are healing from infidelity and need concentrated support
Are in crisis or experiencing significant distress in their relationship
Have difficulty attending weekly sessions regularly
Wish to accelerate or jump-start their therapeutic process
Amanda carefully coordinates with the couple’s regular therapist both before and after the intensive session, ensuring clear communication and continuity of care. Following the intensive, Amanda can provide personalized referrals to trusted therapists in your area. With a signed release of information, she facilitates a smooth and seamless transition to support lasting growth.
