It’s been a tough process for me to even begin therapy but Amanda has eased my nerves and I’m only 2 sessions in and she is getting to know and understand me more. I look forward to progressing forward with Amanda in therapy!

More about Amanda

  • 3 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

I am licensed in Pennsylvania with 3 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, coping with grief and loss, & depression. Specifically, I am trained in Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing therapy (EMDR) & Internal Family Systems (IFS), which are two evidence based treatment modalities that are shown to be beneficial with individuals who have experienced trauma. I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
