Hello (: I’m Amanda, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker - Associate; a Licensed Clinical Addiction Specialist, and a Certified Peer Support Specialist with over 10 years of experience in the mental health and substance use field. My passion for this work comes from both professional training and personal understanding of life’s challenges. I believe that healing begins with connection, and I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can share openly and feel truly heard. My approach is compassionate and collaborative - I walk alongside you as we work through challenges such as: anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, and life transitions. Counseling with me isn’t about quick fixes, but about building skills, discovering strengths, and creating meaningful change at your own pace. My goal is to support you in finding hope, resilience, and a renewed sense of self.
