About
Amanda Sifonte, LCSW, practices in New York and brings eight years of clinical experience supporting teens, adults, and older adults through stressful life periods. She focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, low self esteem, and depression, with additional attention to caregiver stress, communication challenges, forgiveness, guilt and shame, isolation and loneliness, self-love, and social anxiety. Her work centers on empathetic, collaborative engagement and respect for each person’s pace and priorities.
Early sessions are used to understand what has brought someone to therapy and what they hope to accomplish. Amanda emphasizes identifying strengths, noticing recurring patterns, and turning that insight into a practical plan aimed at emotional well-being and personal growth. She draws on evidence-based practices and adapts them to the needs of the individual.
Amanda aims to create a space where people feel seen and supported while they navigate grief, chronic conditions, transitions, or the everyday pressures of life. She works with each person to set meaningful goals and build resilience while fostering connections that support lasting change.
