- “I’m very fortunate to have found Amanda. I’ve been through several different therapist before in my journey through self healing through various challenges and eras. I’m so glad that I could connect with her as my therapist as it’s not easy to find a right fit. I’m fortunate to have found her during these challenging times.”
- “My experience with Amanda has been very positive! She is knowledgeable and always has answer for me. She has provided me tools in the form of coping skills, stress/anxiety management, and different avenues to control my emotions. She is very helpful in coming up with game plans with me or different techniques to notice, realize, and control my emotions in healthy ways. She cares a lot about how I'm feeling and over all doing. I've come to enjoy our sessions and always look forward to them.”

I trust her judgment, and I enjoy our interactions. She doesn’t make me feel judged or pressured, but she helps expand my thinking and toolbox for taking care of myself by sharing insights and perspectives that I would not have considered on my own. I feel lucky to have found Amanda. I wish everyone could work with a therapist like Amanda.”
