About Amanda
Starting therapy can feel like a big step, whether it’s filled with excitement, hesitation, or somewhere in between. We all face times when life feels overwhelming—whether it’s trauma, feeling lost, or not feeling like ourselves. During these moments, reaching out for support is an act of strength and I am here to walk this path with you. I know firsthand how transformative it can be to feel truly seen and heard, and I aim to offer that kind of connection in every session. Together, we will work to build a relationship centred on mutual trust and connection to help support you on your journey through life.
I specialize in working with adolescents, teens, and adults (individuals, couples, and families) to navigate challenges like burnout, trauma, stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and communication struggles, and breakups. I have experience and a passion for working with people with intellectual and developmental disabilities, Autism Spectrum Disorder, and those living with physical disabilities. I have a special passion for working with people experiencing low self-esteem, disordered eating, and body image concerns. As a competitive Latin dancer for over two decades, I understand the stress we put our bodies under to perform under high stakes, and sometimes life can feel like a competition. I’m here to help you through accepting and supporting yourself through the trials and challenges, helping you find balance, resilience, and self-compassion even in the face of pressure. Together, we can work on embracing your strengths, understanding your limits, and fostering a sense of inner peace amidst life’s demands.
Using a variety of therapeutic approaches tailored to your unique needs including emotion focused therapy (EFT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), eye-movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) and cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT), to name a few, I aim to provide practical tools and strategies to support your journey. I’m passionate about helping you reconnect with your inner strength, discover your voice, and live authentically within your body. Together, let’s take this step towards growth, self-discovery, and healing.
