Meet Amanda
I began working in the mental healthcare field in 2015, starting in community-based behavioral health settings, including outpatient clinics and residential programs. I chose mental healthcare because I’ve always enjoyed helping people feel seen, supported and encouraged, especially during their most vulnerable moments. I have a special interest in working with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma-related disorders. I also enjoy supporting clients navigating life transitions, grief, and relationship issues. I utilize a trauma-informed, person-centered approach, drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, and mindfulness-based interventions. I tailor my approach based on each client’s needs and goals. • Any special certifications you utilize to improve patient outcomes: I am certified in CPI (Crisis Prevention Intervention) and CPR, and have completed training in suicide risks. These certifications help me ensure safety and trust while working with patients. I strive to create a warm, inclusive environment where individuals feel empowered to take charge of their mental health journey
