Amanda is a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who specializes in working with young children, caregivers, adults, and birthing people. She initially came to this work as a preschool teacher and quickly found that she enjoyed being around the authenticity and joy of young children. Amanda works collaboratively with adults and children to better understand themselves so that they can have more fulfilling relationships. She fully endorses and embraces the Diversity Informed Tenets for work with infants, children, and families and she works to bring these values into the support she provides for families.
Amanda has developed and implemented many innovative programs providing mental health consultation, perinatal mental health, and trauma informed support for over 20 years. She is a rostered provider of Child Parent Psychotherapy (CPP), has advanced training in Infant and Maternal Mental Health from the Barnard Center at the University of Washington, and was trained in reflective practice facilitation through The Irving Harris Foundation.
