Hi! My name is Amanda Sterzick and I am a licensed social worker in the State of Michigan. I received my BA from Northern Michigan University and majored in Psychology: Behavior Analysis with a minor in Human Services. I wanted something broader than Psychology allowed me, and a Master's Degree from Grand Valley State University in Social Work fit that bill. For the majority of my career I have worked with families experiencing a housing crisis along with depression, anxiety, and trauma. I have case managed, counseled, problem solved, supported, encouraged, and gave hope to those I have worked with. I strive to be warm, welcoming, and hospitable.
In my practice, I focus heavily on a person’s strengths and creative problem solving when I am supporting them. I see potential everywhere and enjoy seeing a person develop and bloom into their goals and personal growth! I love to practice the art of connecting, supporting, and developing of those that I work with.
If you are searching for a counselor, you are also searching for some support during a stressful season of your life. Finding the right counselor that you can connect with, trust, and rely on is important. If you can’t find the right match, you won’t find as much success in you work at Better Help. Please review my profile to see if you and I could be the best match to support you in your goals and time of need. I am excited to get to know you and support you in your journey! Reach out when it feels right and please let me know what questions or concerns you may have. We can get our first appointment scheduled as soon as you would like.
My first step is usually to ask how you would like to design our work together to get you that support you are looking for. What is the best way and times for us to communicate? As we are designing our work together, we can decide the best modes of communication to help get you the support you are looking for. We can schedule virtual time together with a video meeting, we can text, or speak on the phone. I have found that combining your expertise of your experiences, feelings, and ideas with my expertise of having worked with others and my therapeutic training can helpful in the creation of goals and solutions to the support you are looking for.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
