She is honestly such an amazing person. She understands and listens and has helped me figure out how strong I actually can be, when I started I was at one of the lowest points I've ever been in and she helped when no one else would and never gave up

Amanda is kind, supportive, and a good listener. I value her input and I’m grateful to have found a therapist that understands my problems. She offers helpful insights and tools for me to help myself. I value our sessions and she has helped me through tough times.

Amanda has been an absolute blessing! She’s understanding of my concerns and has no problem talking me through whatever issues I’ve had that week as well as continual work with me for all of my underlying chronic issues. I feel like I’m chatting with a much smarter friend that I can spill whatever to and won’t be judged or made to feel bad, but rather empathetic discussions and guidance.
