Amanda Johnston
Do you struggle to believe in your heart and body what you know in your brain? I'm worthy. It wasn't my fault. I'm in control now. I can trust myself. Do you give your friends more grace than you give yourself? I am certified in EMDR therapy, an evidence-based treatment that can help bring congruence between those things you know to be true when your body says otherwise. EMDR is an effective treatment for so many things, including trauma, depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, perfectionism, and so much more! I don't just focus on what's wrong but also what is right and your strengths and unique lived experience. Together we will find resources and skills that work for you to find calm in your mind and body and heal old wounds. I am your copilot and you are ultimately in control. I can offer you different paths to mental health. In addition to EMDR, I'm also certified in trauma-sensitive yoga and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Trauma takes choice away and I strive to never take that power from clients. People so often question if their experience was "bad enough" to warrant therapy but your experience and happiness matter.
Please reach out for a free consultation. I accept almost all insurance and am happy to give you an estimate and discuss sliding scale options. If I am not the right fit for you, I can help connect you with someone who is. :)
