Hi, I’m Amanda.
You’ve survived deep wounds—abuse that has shaped how you see yourself, your relationships, and the world. Maybe you struggle with overwhelming emotions, dissociation, panic, or feeling disconnected from your body and identity. You might find yourself in unhealthy relationships, battling self-doubt, or feeling like healing is out of reach. But trauma does not define you. I specialize in supporting survivors of sexual, physical, & emotional abuse reclaim their sense of self using EMDR, IFS, Somatic Experiencing, and a relational, psychodynamic approach. With nearly a decade of experience, I am here to affirm that healing is possible.
Warm & Compassionate Therapy
I provide a deeply attuned, trauma-informed space where you can explore your experiences without fear or shame. Whether you're navigating dissociation (including DID and depersonalization/derealization), anxiety, panic attacks, or personality adaptations rooted in trauma, I'm here to help you reconnect with yourself. In addition to therapy, I offer consults and licensure supervision to LMSWs.
I also provide an accepting and affirming environment for those exploring their gender or sexual identity and the LGBTQIA2S+ community. You are welcome and celebrated here.

Somatic Experiencing
Our bodies carry the weight of trauma and emotional pain. Somatic Experiencing offers a way to release that burden by reconnecting you with your body and its natural healing rhythms. This approach helps you feel safe, grounded, and empowered, whether you are recovering from abuse or exploring your identity. Click here to learn more.

Internal Family Systems (IFS)
Experiences like abuse and trauma can leave us with chronic shame, anxiety, depression, and uncertainty. At times, we may even feel we don’t recognize ourselves or feel far from who we really are. IFS gives us the tools to befriend the parts of ourselves that we have developed to keep us safe so we can experience ourselves and others with more compassion, bringing about a sense of centeredness and freedom.

Relational Therapy
The way we connect with others is often shaped by past wounds, and this is why I take a psychodynamic and relational approach to therapy. Relational therapy allows us to work through past patterns within the safety of the therapeutic relationship. By developing a safe and accepting therapeutic relationship, you can create healthier, more fulfilling connections in your life and heal from past relational trauma. Click here to learn more.
