Looking for a therapist who truly sees you, not just your symptoms?
Amanda is a warm, down-to-earth therapist who specializes in individual therapy for adults (18+) and couples navigating trauma, life transitions, relationship challenges, low self-esteem, mood disorders, and veterans’ mental health. She’s passionate about supporting people who feel stuck in old patterns and want to better understand and rewrite their story.

Amanda holds a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Governors State University and is a Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor (CADC). Her professional background includes three years in intensive residential substance use treatment, equipping her with deep insight into addiction recovery and co-occurring mental health issues.

With a thoughtful, flexible approach, Amanda integrates:

  • Psychodynamic Therapy and Narrative Therapy to explore root causes and create meaning
  • Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) for emotional regulation and distress tolerance
  • Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to strengthen relationship dynamics
  • Strengths-Based approaches to empower growth and healing

Amanda values the therapy process and is committed to helping clients achieve meaningful “aha!” moments that lead to real change.

Outside of work, Amanda is a proud cat parent to Jake, Bucky, Emily, and Finn. She enjoys creating bioactive terrariums, sewing, painting, and playing Dungeons & Dragons. Her creativity and curiosity bring richness to her clinical work, and her genuine care makes her a trusted ally in her clients’ healing journeys.
