Therapy for anxiety and depression
Helping you gain the skills to quiet your mind
I am Amanda, and I can help.
I use techniques from multiple modalities to help find the tools that will work best for you. I have training and experience in both Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy. Using humor and warmth, I will hold you accountable. My goal is to help you work toward the change you want to see, decrease your anxiety, and feel more centered and confident in your abilities.
Do you want to feel content in your daily life but instead you are unclear on where your feelings come from or even what you are even feeling to begin with?
Are you constantly in survival mode, reacting to whatever the next thing is?
Feeling tired, anxious, unmotivated but not sure where to start?
Are you just sick and tired of being sick and tired
You may feel like you are missing out on the present because you are either stuck in the past or worried about the future. People often have difficulty sleeping and feel down or irritable. It takes a lot of energy to be living in the past, present, and future all at the same time! It can impact all the areas of your life, including relationships with family, friends, coworkers, and yourself.
Specialties
Anxiety
Feeling like you are in “survival mode” or “flight, fight, or freeze” all is a signal that something else is going on. Whether you are struggling with panic attacks or generalized anxiety, I can help you learn the tools you need to feel more grounded and in control of your life.
Stress
Can be a result of good change or hard times. It can impact all aspects of your well-being from your physical to your emotional health. It can be chronic or as a result of something major going on. If you are at a crossroads, I can help you navigate the future by sorting through the issues of the past.
Grief
Can show up in our life for many reasons. Whether you’ve lost someone long ago or recently, grief is something that everyone goes through and can feel so lonely at the same time. You may also be grieving something more complicated, a job, divorce, or even your past. I can walk with you on your path and help keep you from getting lost.
Depression
You may feel like you have no energy, have stopped finding joy in things, or not feel anything at all. Sometimes you can make sense of it or these feelings can come out of nowhere. As your therapist, I can help you to find the motivation and reconnect with the joy so that you can live the life you want.
Trauma
Comes in many forms. It can be rooted in one event or from a series of events. It can impact how you interact with the world and the people in it. I can give you the tools to let go of the of the past and enable you to define who you want to be in the future.
