Therapy for sensitive women and femmes ready to align with their truth.

In-person in Portland and online throughout Oregon.

Hello to my fellow sensitive women and femmes! If any of this sounds familiar, this might be the place for you…

You're feeling lost, stuck, overwhelmed or worn down. You're intelligent and insightful but can't think your way out of anxiety and depression. You struggle to feel met in relationships or find belonging. You're tired of feeling weighed down by the emotions of others. You don't want another worksheet for charting out your thoughts, you want deep change. You might be queer/ENM/kinky and you don't want to have to explain yourself. You might suspect you're neurodivergent, or already know you are.

I'd like to help you gain clarity around your patterns that keep you stuck. I want our work together to empower you to reclaim your story and share your innate gifts. You can learn to channel your sensitivity to deeply attune to yourself and others, and at the same time maintain boundaries to protect your energy. I want you to align with yourself so you can build the relationships, community, calling and life that you want and deserve.

Meet Amanda!

Hi, I’m Amanda. For as long as I can remember I’ve felt deeply. Even from a young age I was sensitive to and supportive of the needs of others. I developed anxiety and depression as a teen and struggled with it throughout my young adulthood. I began the work work of practicing self-compassion and began to heal my self-esteem, yet somehow I still couldn’t beat the lack of motivation and stuckness of my depression. In my mid-thirties, I received an ADHD diagnosis, something clicked into place and suddenly all of my struggles began to make sense. Ultimately I came to understand how the combination of my innate sensitivity and childhood trauma shaped my mental health. Today, I’m still learning and growing and helping others on their journey.

I’m a former theatre/choir kid, art student and Planned Parenthood worker. I’ve been passionate about sharing my creativity and helping people, which ultimately led me to pursue my Masters in Counseling. I love using the mind-body methods I have learned to help others create deep, lasting change. I identify as a queer cis-woman, I practice polyamory and have participated in the kink community in Portland. I love helping others in my community/adjacent communities on their journey.
