About me
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Mental Health Service Provider designation licensed in Tennessee with over 4 years of experience. I am a National Certified Counselor and Certified Clinical Trauma Professional. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including struggling with addiction issues, depression, anxiety, co-occurring disorders, and trauma. I have helped many people who have experienced emotional, physical, and sexual abuse.
My counseling style focuses on rapport building and meeting the client where they are at in a non-judgmental manner. My approach is integrative, which includes utilizing: Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Existential Therapy, Narrative therapy, and Person-Centered Therapy. We will work together in order to find. the best approach for you and the goals you would like to work on.
It takes a lot of courage to reach out and say you need help. There is no shame in needing someone to talk to. We have check ups for physical health. Why not mental health? When you're ready, I would love to help you on your journey to a happier life.

I have been with Amanda for a year and a half & she has saved me! She is non judgemental, kind & understanding. I have struggled with mental illness for years and she is the only therapist that I have wanted to continue seeing and look forward to seeing every visit!
