Hello, my name is Amanda. As a Licensed Independent Social Worker, Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, and veteran of the Air Force, I dedicate my clinical work to those who devote their lives to protecting and serving others. My focus remains on supporting first responders, active-duty military, veterans, and their loved ones, offering an environment where their specific challenges are fully recognized.
Having served myself, I possess a direct understanding of the unique cultural dynamics and stressors that define military and service life. I recognize that requesting support can often feel misplaced or like a sign of weakness. I believe the reality is quite the contrary: asking for help is an immense act of bravery. In my care, you will find a safe haven to express your honest experiences without being judged.
Throughout my career, I have worked across diverse settings, ranging from veteran affairs and healthcare networks to community mental health centers. I assist individuals facing PTSD, complex trauma, anxiety, loss, and relationship issues. I am passionate about guiding people through deep-seated trauma, helping you shift from a state of survival into a life of authentic growth by utilizing healthy strategies and foster meaningful recovery.
