I believe true connection and healing are possible, and that therapy holds the capacity for profound transformation. We'll work within a supportive and accepting environment navigating areas relating to belonging, past trauma, owning the strength of sensitivity and confidence in self expression. I specialize in supporting identities and interests such as high sensitivity, low self esteem and self worth, spirituality, codependency, childhood emotional neglect, addiction, adult children and siblings of substance users, life transitions, anxiety, depression, loneliness, and Bipolar disorder.

Talk therapy for your intersecting identities. We are adept at navigating the difficult and complex conversations about your intersecting identities that can ebb and flow over one's life. In addition, we are committed to ongoing education and skilled at therapeutic intervention for psychological healing. By talking through the challenges you face, we collaborate with you to interrupt old patterned behavior and install new conclusions and behaviors that lead to constructive coping, personal growth, increased self-awareness, and feeling more comfortable within yourself.

My role and purpose is to help people find their freedom in order to find deep meaning in life and to love freely. The people I see often feel diminished and beaten down by many things including substance use disorders, shame put upon them by others, early childhood trauma and the grief associated with living. In my practice I help people learn skills and ways to cope with their individual issues so that they are able to live with the pain and not in it. I work with many modalities of treatment including Rapid Resolution Therapy used to treat trauma. I provide Acudetox to all my clients at every session for no additional fee.

I am a trans and queer therapist and I greatly believe in the power of having a therapist that shares identities or experiences similar to your own! I work with trans and queer youth and adults. Living in a marginalized identity brings many challenges and I offer support, skills, and a systems perspective to navigate those barriers-while also celebrating joy, resilience, successes, and all parts of your identity. I specialize in gender affirming therapy, trauma therapy, and working with historically marginalized folx. My first priorities are safety and trust, so that we can move towards healing and taking up space!

Could you use some time that is set apart just for you? Too often life asks you to take a back seat, to forget all the wounds and suffering that lie hidden and ignored in the back of your mind. Together we will create a space separate from your life where you can safely explore your fear, sorrow, anger and aspiration. The space that we create will generate personal clarity, confidence and support in your daily life. We accomplish this as a team by using concrete, holistic, and analytical tools to build a solid foundation of personal health.

Learn how to feel more connected to yourself, others and the world around you. Therapy provides all the elements of intimacy: honest communication, vulnerability and trust. Good therapy is challenging yet warm, providing both structure and empathy for your unique experience. We are a collective of therapists with a wide range of specialties. Our intake professionals will help connect you with the right therapist for your needs. We make appointments easy, offering evenings and weekends and flexibility for creative professionals who can't make the same time each week.

Life is a journey and no one escapes the trials and tribulations that come with living a full life. I believe in hope and I believe in everyone's ability to grow and change to become the best versions of themselves. In a collaborative effort, I can assist in your journey to ensure you have the opportunity to experience your own greatest happiness. I specialize in addictions, trauma, couple counseling, sex therapy, personality disorders, anxiety/depression, bipolar diagnosis, and grief/loss.

Relationships are a skill that require practice. Most of us have been exposed to, or surrounded by, poor models of relating. Whether you've observed or been involved in relationships characterized by avoidance, passive-aggression, people-pleasing, dishonesty, or abuse...there is hope. Can you be present with an open mind, spirit of curiosity, and a willingness to try new things? New patterns can be learned, and these patterns can replace the ones that cause disconnection and misunderstanding. Healing isn't always comfortable, but that's why they call it "growing pains" :)

Is pornography, cybersex, or sexual addiction impacting your life? Are you feeling alone, sexually rejected, or struggling with low desire in your relationship? Do you want more sexual and emotion intimacy? Are you concerned about your sexual identity or sexual functioning? It is common for people to encounter sexual problems, at any age. What is uncommon is for people to do something about those problems before they irreparably damage their self-esteem and relationships. Left unmanaged, anger, shame, and fear increase. The sooner you come in for help the better chance you have of growing a happy, healthy sexual life.

Sex Addiction is a black hole. Getting help via a therapeutic relationship where the client can be heard, accepted, empathized with and helped to feel safe can lead to the healing of freedom from this addiction. Tools for growth, new strength, a greater life balance, clarity are used. I have a passion for coming alongside individuals who are seeking freedom from this addiction, helping them to see a path to that freedom and walking alongside them on that precious journey. The greatest satisfaction I derive is from seeing an individual attain his or her life goals through this special therapeutic relationship. First consult is free.

I help clients see that change and growth are an inside job. When people feel unhappy they often look to other people, career, money and substances to make them feel better. This doesn't work long-term and only creates dependencies that harm them. For many, struggles are rooted in childhood experiences with less than ideal parenting and attachment patterns. Helping my clients to resolve and move past family of origin wounds, identify and eliminate destructive beliefs from their childhood and the behavior created from these beliefs, allows clients the ability to embrace their own lives and opens the door into joy & personal freedom.

More and more people are having trouble knowing who they are or where they belong in life. What we were taught growing up or what we learn from society doesn't make sense or apply any longer. Because of this, we have difficulties from depression to questioning our own belief system. It may appear as confusion, anxiety, anger, or anything that disrupts our day-to-day life. When we feel this way it is a hurt or loss that is almost impossible to describe. My type of counseling presents people with an opportunity to understand why and how they think and feel the way they do and to go deeper than they could have possibly imagined.

Finding the right therapist is hard—harder than it ought to be. Especially when you’re already struggling. But it’s essential. The person of the therapist, their fit for you, and the therapeutic relationship are all more important to successful therapy than any degree, license, orientation, or even years of experience. Making the call and actually doing therapy is even harder—but worth it. Psychotherapy works. It can be one of the most significant and transformative experiences of your life. It's also a big investment of time, money and effort. I honor your courage and support your commitment to yourself to even consider it.

My goal in therapy is to help you know your value, and feel empowered to make the life you want. We can all feel tied down by old stories that no longer serve us. My role is to come along side you and help use the natural ways our body regulates, and mind communicates to help you find the truth in your story. Whether you are suffering the loss of someone you love, going through a major change in your life, desiring to be heard in your relationship or any of the other struggles that make us human, I would be honored to be a part of your journey.

Every individual is on a unique path filled with twists, turns, and challenges that shape their life. Sometimes, it can be helpful to walk alongside a companion who is dedicated to working with you to achieve your goals, bring you insight, and empower you to move towards genuine fulfillment. I am passionate about honoring your story and how it shapes your thoughts, behaviors, and beliefs. Because no two individuals are the same, your therapeutic work should reflect your individual needs and objectives. I blend narrative therapy, Brainspotting, somatic therapy, and parts work to help you meet your therapy goals.

All of life is layered with loss, pain, hardship, and suffering. In the midst of these layers is the possibility for insight, change, courage, growth, and wholeness. Whatever you bring into the therapeutic space, you are making a courageous decision to pursue healing and tap into your resiliency. Through our work together, you will learn to embrace your unique journey, finding clarity, purpose, and empowerment along the way. My ultimate goal is to help you cultivate a deeper connection with yourself and others, creating a life filled with meaning, fulfillment, and resilience.

Hi there, I'm Amanda! I'm happy you're here and am excited to tell you what therapy with me looks like. Some key takeaways of my therapeutic style are that I offer direct feedback, express my empathy, and uncover the root of client’s issues to guide them toward transformative healing. Clients explain my therapeutic style as disarming, trusting that my direct feedback comes from a place of compassion. I’m passionate about uncovering the root of the client’s issues, believing that therapy is most beneficial when I can develop a secure relationship with my clients and empower them to grow.

Therapy is about developing a new kind of relationship with one's experience. Much of our pain, suffering, and struggle stem from resisting the experience, judging it, and denying it. My work is dedicated to helping you embrace the challenges and find meaning in them by helping you slow down, enter the experience, and discover your potent spark. We have our answers within and by looking inside, our suffering finds meaning and transformation, our vision finds clarity and awakening.

Have you tried everything but sadness, loneliness or your relationship stays the same? You don’t have to suffer any longer. I understand the courage it takes to ask for help. Together, we'll transform pain and isolation into meaningful insight, self-love, connection and powerful, emotional strength. I’m a couples’ therapy expert and adult wellness specialist. I help heal relationships with parenting difficulties, affairs, religious or financial differences, intimacy issues and family conflict. I also specialize in helping adults navigating life transitions, and experiencing anxiety or depression.
