Amanda Sholty

“I have worked with other therapists in the past, but for the very first time, Amanda makes me feel heard. I feel like I'm the focus of her attention during each interaction. She gives me feedback that I can truly use, and isn't afraid to point out perhaps I need redirected. I appreciate that. I am so happy to have discovered Betterhelp, and even happier that they placed me with Amanda.”

“Amanda is amazing! She’s the first therapist I have found that I feel completely comfortable talking with. She is helpful, realistic and always available for messages!”

“Amanda is very good at listening and understanding where I am currently as well as honing in on my goals and helping to bring them to the forefront of my focus and giving me clear achievable goals to work towards weekly to ensure that I feel progress. She is empathetic, non judge mental and offers reflection. I feel confident in her ability to balance listening and offering support and letting me navigate my struggles while feeling supported and in control. I am grateful for her guidance and listening ear.”

“I've been working with Amanda for 7 months and the change has been astounding. Amanda has been patient, understanding, and has created an incredibly safe space where there are no wrong feelings or thoughts.

“Amanda is an excellent therapist! She is highly specialized and her expertise shows. I personally find have found the most success with cognitive-behavioral therapy to help me understand some of the ways my depression has warped my perception of the world and myself, and she has done an excellent job at coaching me through some of my cognitive fallacies through CBT. She is also generally very kind and empathetic, and I feel safe talking to her. I know I can tell her the truth and that she will challenge some of my thoughts in a friendly way that doesn't feel demeaning.”

“Amanda is thoughtful, attentive and kind. She is my cheerleader when it’s what I need and brings me back to Earth when that’s what I really need. Very thankful for getting matched with her”
