My name is Mandy. I’ve been a counselor for 14 years and I’m an accredited therapist. I work in a person-centered way, creating a safe, compassionate space for you to explore whatever you need to at your own pace.
We can start by working in the present—focusing on what’s going on for you right now. If and when you feel ready, we can gently explore deeper patterns through a more psychodynamic approach. That might include inner child work, which can be a powerful way to heal old wounds. But if you'd prefer to stay in the present, that’s completely okay—we can work with CBT and mindfulness-based strategies to help you feel more steady and clear.
My approach is flexible and always guided by your needs. Sometimes I create meditations for clients to support them between sessions, but the main focus is helping you identify and experience the underlying feelings that may be at the root of your challenges. It's about building resilience in your mind, learning to sit with discomfort, and starting to move forward in a way that feels less toxic and more empowering.
A big part of this work is learning to embrace painful feelings with care and compassion. I hold space in an empathic way, allowing those emotions to be felt and released in a safe environment—without judgment or pressure.
There’s no rush. You can move through things at your own pace. Some weeks you might want to talk about one thing, other weeks something entirely different. It’s an open, flexible space. You can have as many sessions as you feel are necessary, and you’re free to pause or stop at any time—whatever feels right for you.

She gives me a safe space to trauma dump and right now that's what I need. I know that we'll get to techniques and stuff but she's super understanding and I really appreciate it. I am not 100% sure what my core issue is yet and she gives me a space to just explore and I've never actually had that before. She's the best

I felt comfortable talking to Mandy from the first session.
She is a great listener and helped me figuring out how I could feel better. Even if we have a very difficult or emotional topic she is trying to help me find something to feel good about at the end, so that I can enjoy the rest of the day/night .
I always enjoy talking to her and she helped me in more ways than I could have ever imagined.
