Hey, I’m Amanda! (she/her)

You’re tired of feeling like you’re ‘too much’ or ‘not enough.’ You overthink everything—rereading texts, analyzing your partner’s mood, or replaying past conversations—and it’s exhausting. Deep down, you know your past is still affecting you, but no matter how hard you try, you can’t just ‘let it go.’ You’re not broken, and you don’t have to figure this out alone.

As an LGBTQIA+ affirming Licensed Mental Health Counselor, I specialize in trauma and anxiety therapy for women and teens in St. Petersburg, Florida, and online throughout the state. If you’re tired of overthinking, feeling disconnected, or stuck in patterns that don’t serve you, I can help you process trauma, break free from anxiety, and feel more grounded in your life and relationships.

Let’s Work Together

  • When you’ve experienced trauma, it can feel like the past is still controlling your present. You might struggle to feel safe, trust yourself, or connect with others the way you want to. Therapy can help you process what you’ve been through, regain a sense of control, and build a life where you feel grounded, connected, and free.

    Get Started

  • You want to heal, but the idea of reliving painful memories feels overwhelming. That’s where Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) comes in. ART helps you process trauma gently and effectively—without having to retell every painful detail. Many people feel relief in just a few sessions, leaving them lighter, clearer, and more in control of their lives.
