Sessions focus on building concrete skills. Clients practice ways to notice early signs of anger, slow down their responses, and repair relationships after conflicts. There is time to talk through past losses, addiction-related concerns, or career and parenting pressure.
Amanda aims to help people make changes that fit their daily life. She invites honest, direct discussion about what works and what doesn’t. To begin, she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the site.
