Testimonials

“Amanda was gracious enough to start working with me around my trauma and grief of my husband being diagnosed with, treated for, and ultimately dying from cancer.  Following his death, Amanda suggested I try EMDR to help with reprocessing painful memories.  We did a few preparatory visits and then a full day intensive EMDR treatment. Her healing persona and skilled guidance allowed me to process thoughts of devastation and anxiety into emotional wellness and a positive outlook for my family’s future. I highly recommend utilizing EMDR for anyone who struggles with painful traumatic memories, intrusive negative thoughts, or unwanted bodily symptoms.   It is not an exaggeration to say that EMDR with Amanda has changed the trajectory of my life for the better.  I wish everyone could experience this kind of healing and freedom!”
