About Amanda
Her approach focuses on clear steps people can use right away. She blends techniques that look at thoughts and behaviors with attention to trauma and sexual health when needed. Sessions are collaborative - Amanda listens first, then suggests small experiments and skills to try between meetings.
Over eight years of practice have shaped how she works with common challenges like attachment wounds, abandonment fears, and codependency. She also supports people coping with addiction patterns, including process addictions such as problematic porn use, gambling, or exercise, and those dealing with the ripple effects of cancer and major life changes like separation or divorce.
Amanda addresses intimate and alternative sexual interests with respect and without judgment, including BDSM and kink topics. She helps people sort out communication and commitment issues, control struggles, guilt and shame, and impulsivity. Therapy looks like talking things through, practicing new ways to respond, and tracking small changes over time.
Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time and are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text messaging. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and appointments are scheduled according to therapist availability.
Approaches and how online therapy can help
Amanda uses evidence-based techniques that focus on thoughts, behaviors, trauma recovery, and sexual health. Cognitive-based methods help identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns and build new coping habits for anxiety, stress, and relationship conflicts. Trauma-informed practices support processing past wounds and reducing their impact on current relationships and daily functioning.She also incorporates sex-positive conversations that normalize intimacy questions and address concerns around desire, BDSM, kink, and alternative sex culture in a non-judgmental way. These approaches can help people improve communication, rebuild trust, and experiment with safer changes in behavior and boundaries.
Finding the right approach is a team effort. Amanda will work with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, comfort level, and pace. She adapts techniques over time so therapy stays practical and relevant to what someone is trying to change.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face work and guided exercises, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat supports real-time check-ins, and messaging can be useful for short updates and ongoing support. These formats offer flexibility for people balancing work, medical concerns, or busy home lives.
