More about Amanda
- 4 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
I’m a licensed clinical social worker in Georgia with over four years of experience supporting clients through life’s messier moments. I help people navigate anxiety, relationship patterns, trauma, stress, depression, and struggles with confidence or self-worth. I also support clients who are high-functioning but feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or emotionally exhausted.
My approach is radically human. I show up as my full self so you can, too. You won’t get a blank screen or surface-level advice here—just real conversations, practical tools, and a space where your identity, voice, and lived experience matter. I center your strengths and values while tailoring therapy to what works for you, not a one-size-fits-all model.
You don’t have to have it all figured out to get started. Therapy is a brave choice and you deserve support that feels like a good fit. I look forward to walking alongside you.

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.
