Dr. Amanda Etienne uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Somatic Therapy as the basis for her practice, which help people gain awareness of how they relate to their thought processes and emotions and helps them engage in values-aligned behaviors to create a fulfilling life. She also incorporates EMDR and IFS therapy to help people develop new ways of relating to difficult experiences and past trauma. Amanda strives to create a safe space for LGBTQIA+ individuals and all ethnic and minority groups. She embraces diversity in her practice and therapeutic work, and aims to enable clients to feel closer to a life of meaning and purpose with each session. She welcome you to reach out for a consultation call to begin your journey toward healing.\

I work with emotionally sensitive individuals struggling with trauma, overwhelming emotions and anxiety to help them to reach long-term healing. By helping them to better understand the impacts of past experiences and to engage in values-aligned action, I help motivated individuals, who often have histories of trauma, grief, and substance abuse, move toward a richer and more fulfilling life. Together, we will work to compassionately identify the hurdles you are facing and create a life you value. I approach my work with compassion, warmth, and curiosity, and I strive to create a safe and non-judgmental environment.
