the waves of change.

You’re doing everything you should be doing.

You’ve gone to school, you’ve established a career, perhaps you’ve even started your own family. But when do those feelings of happiness start to show up? You’re depleted, exhausted, hyper-critical of yourself, and left wondering how you can feel so bad when you’ve done it all right. You may even know what would lead to a better path for you, but other people’s opinions keep you stuck in the monotony of doing what you’re supposed to do. After all, whether or not they’re happy with your choices matters more than if you’re happy with the life you’ve built for yourself, right?

  What if I told you there’s a way that you can obtain an authentic and peaceful life?

I’m Amanda, and I can assist you in doing just that. I help high achieving anxious, depressed, and highly sensitive people identify their values and heal people pleasing tendencies in order to live a life of alignment. Do you notice feelings of nervousness when someone hasn’t immediately replied to your text? Are you so afraid of tough conversations that you’ll avoid social situations with the people in your life? Does the weight of your emotional experience leave you feeling like you’d be better off going it alone? Do you have repetitive distressing thoughts that cause so much discomfort that you’re distracted from your daily life?

I’m here to help you make sense of all of this and achieve the life you desire.

I’m so glad you’re here.

Hi! I’m Amanda, and I help adults and teens identify their needs, values, and heal people pleasing tendencies in order to live a more harmonious life.

 

Working with me, you will discover the root cause of these painful emotional experiences, identify, and change unhelpful thought and behavior patterns, and emerge feeling in control of your own life. You will come to better understand your emotions and find that you can live a fulfilling life.

Highly Sensitive People (HSPs)

You feel the world with an intensity others may have a hard time understanding. You find yourself overwhelmed by the hustle and bustle of everyday life, struggling to navigate the world’s many challenges. You crave spaces where your sensitivity isn’t only tolerated but celebrated.

My Specialties Include

Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)

You’re sick of the distress your thoughts are causing you. You’re done with engaging in rituals and safety behaviors, and you’re ready to find relief.

Overachievers

You take a great deal of pride in your successes. You push yourself to the limits to be the best, as this is what helps you to feel safe and secure. It all looks great from the outside, but on the inside, you’re feeling incomplete. This doesn’t make sense to you, you have everything you were told would make you “happy”!

HOW I WORK

I believe therapy should be simple.

Therapy is a highly unique and collaborative process, and finding a therapist you click with can be the hardest part. I like to make the rest of the process simple by offering a complimentary 20 minute phone consultation in order to determine fit for working together. Following that conversation, we will schedule an assessment session during which we will further discuss your history and reason for seeking therapy, and identify the goals you hope to accomplish together.
