Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
I am a licensed clinical social worker in the state of Michigan. I graduated from Wayne State University with my master’s in social work in 2014. Most of my experience is working with severe mental illness in a community-based setting. I started as a case manager in 2014 and then transitioned into a community-based therapy position in May 2019. I worked in an Outpatient Clinic during the daytime doing individual therapy for 3 years and went back to community mental health. I am working as a lead DBT therapist.
My passion is helping others figure out how to live their best lives. I am here to help you figure out and process issues you may be having and assisting you finding solutions that work. My style includes using Solution-focused brief therapy, mindfulness, empowerment, cognitive behavioral theory, DBT, and active listening. I have focused on helping individuals with a variety of issues including depression, anxiety, anger management, and relationship concerns.
It takes strength and courage to seek assistance from others. I am here to help you on your journey and hope we can build a strong working relationship.

Outside of clinical details, Amanda notes personal preferences that may matter to some clients: she values direct communication, likes pets, identifies with alternative or unconventional styles, is comfortable with cursing if a client prefers that tone, appreciates tattoos and piercings, leans liberal, and sometimes wears loud hair colors.

Many people wonder whether remote therapy can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or navigating life changes, remote therapy has been shown to be comparable to traditional in-person care for effectiveness.
One major benefit is convenience – people can meet with a therapist in the format that fits them best, whether that is a video visit, a phone call, live chat, or in-app messaging. That flexibility makes it simpler to weave care into a busy schedule.
Therapists who provide remote care are licensed professionals, and individuals may choose to change therapists if they want a different fit. For many, online therapy offers an effective, adaptable way to access support for everyday mental health concerns.
