My approaches to therapy

Collaborative & Empathetic

Therapy is a shared process. I bring professional guidance and genuine empathy, while you bring your lived experience and strengths. I believe in working with you, not on you — with empathy, honesty, and respect guiding each step.

Connection & Empowerment

My work is grounded in the belief that healing happens through connection — both with ourselves and with others. I’m committed to helping clients find their own sense of strength, clarity, and empowerment.

Safety & Inclusivity

I hold a strong belief that therapy should be a place of safety and belonging for all. I strive to approach my work with cultural humility and openness, acknowledging the many intersecting identities that shape who we are. My practice welcomes clients from all walks of life, with particular care for those who have felt unseen or excluded

Who Am I?

Hi, I’m Amanda, a therapist who takes an integrative and collaborative approach to therapy. I believe that a strong, warm, and transparent relationship is the foundation for meaningful change. My goal is to create a space where clients feel safe, heard, and empowered to explore their stories and move toward growth.

I tailor my work to each individual, drawing from modalities such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and Narrative Therapy. I am person-centred at heart and believe therapy works best when it’s a partnership built on authenticity and trust.

My primary focus and specialization is in eating disorders. During my practicum year, I worked extensively with clients navigating eating disorders and body image concerns, and I continue to find this work deeply meaningful. Beyond this specialization, I have experience supporting clients with a range of concerns including anxiety, OCD, depression, relationship and attachment issues, substance use, and sexual health. I value working with a diverse clientele and strive to create an inclusive and affirming space for everyone. Those from all minority groups are welcome and safe. I strive to advocate and use my privilege to amplify the voice of others.

In addition to individual therapy, I welcome couples into my practice. My work with couples integrates the Gottman Method and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to strengthen connection, improve communication, and foster deeper understanding.

I approach all of my work from a trauma-informed perspective, ensuring that each session honors your pace, your story, and your resilience.
