Amanda believes in holistic healing using a dynamic and creative approach to psychotherapy to help her clients live present and authentically. She believes every human is capable of change and the most effective way to start the process is to work together through Curiosity, Openness, Acceptance, and Love (COAL); collaborating to identify therapeutic treatment goals and to walk together in the treatment journey. Amanda uses an eclectic approach to therapy incorporating multiple therapeutic techniques including TF-CBT, Solution-Focused Therapy, Mindfulness, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and body-based interventions. Prior to joining The Center for Mindfulness & CBT, Amanda worked at Hyland Behavioral Health on the inpatient psychiatric units, where she supported adolescents and adults. She specializes in treating survivors of trauma, anxiety, and depression.
