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.

I came into therapy skeptical on whether it could actually help and have been blown away. My outlook on life has changed for the better. Amanda has been so kind and patient with me. I really feel like I can trust her with anything and that she has my back for every challenge in life. I didn't realize how many things were an issue in my life until we sat down and took a very critical look at my biggest obstacles. Thank you Amanda for helping me fix my life ❤️

Amanda is one of a kind! She isn’t afraid to say what she knows you don’t want to hear and still says it from a place of love and support. She can step in and be the best friend, the mom, the tough love or just the listener. Therapy with her the last few months has changed my life and no one has made me comfortable with emotions and healing like Amanda has. She has truly made me feel like family and I don’t know what I’d do without her!

Simply put, Amanda Adams is my perfect therapy match. She listens to my concerns and clearly prepares for meeting with me by reading the messages, journal entries and worksheets I send her throughout the week. She cares and helps me navigate my life challenges and traumas, but always works to use my personal strengths to keep me in the drivers seat of my own life.

I’ve only worked with Amanda for a short time now but she’s already shown me how powerful great therapy can be! From day one she’s made me feel heard, understood, and validated. She actually puts effort into showing she cares and I really enjoy how our conversations feel natural more than clinical.
