I love how responsive and interactive our conversations are in between sessions. I can really talk to Amanda and feel like she truly cares about me. Amanda has been able to help me work through my ADHD triggers and stress levels while also being sensitive of my traumas.

This therapist has been a gift I desperately needed! Very professional and empathetic. Always prompt, and extremely patient. Not afraid to tell ya if thinks your in the wrong. Excellent at trouble shooting life problems. I'd give her more than a 10 out of 10!
