Amanda Shepard, LCMHC

Hello I’m Amanda! I've been practicing since 2020 and I’m accepting new clients. It can be daunting to start or resume therapy with a new therapist. So I strive to create a strong therapeutic relationship with my clients from the first session and onward. Being in therapy myself and doing the work that I do, I know this is hard work but it’s so meaningful and transformative. My favorite part of my job is having genuine connections with my clients, celebrating their wins with them, and finding breakthroughs that genuinely help boost their understanding of themselves and their confidence to deal with life challenges.

I enjoy working with older teen, young adult, and adult clients. I'm passionate about treating depression, anxiety, relationship issues, pornography addiction, faith crisis, and trauma. Modalities I use often are cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), internal family systems (IFS), and accelerated resolution therapy (ART).

Feel free to reach out to see if we’re a good fit to work together! I’m available to answer questions and chat via email, text, or phone consult. And if you’re ready to schedule a first session, my website is a great place to start. Outside of work, I enjoy making crafts, playing video games, watching scary movies, and visiting my local farmers market.
