Amera Douglas, Ph.D
(she/her)
Hi there, my name is Dr. Amera. Are you overwhelmed? Stuck in a rut? Struggling to keep up with your relationships, work and health? Is it hard to be kind to yourself? I am here with the sole purpose of helping you identify ways you can best manage anxiety and avoid burnout. Together, we can identify what's not working and get you back to balance. We'll use a whole self approach, addressing the needs of your mind, body and spirit. I believe mindfulness, self-care and yoga are effective tools to help you develop a stronger relationship with yourself. Whether you're dealing with overwhelm, relationship issues or cycles of anxiety and depression, I'm here to help. Seeking therapy can feel scary but you're making the right choice. You deserve a safe space to heal and grow. In our sessions together, I'll meet you with compassion and evidence-based techniques so you can overcome the hangups and habits holding you back. Let's work together!
Get to know me
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
We will begin a psychosocial history (your story), then identifying your specific goals for therapy and the most effective way to assist you in getting the most out of our time together (i.e., do you prefer videos, reading, mediative techniques, journaling, verbal ventilations, etc.)
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
I pride myself on being a non-judgemental, safe space for you to freely express yourself with transparency
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
BIPOC, LGBTQAI+, WOMEN, INTIMATE PARTNER VIOLENCE, SEXUAL VIOLENCE There is no need to "try not to think about it", rather, you can learn how to dial down the distress enough to move through it

My first therapy session was excellent. She was warm, attentive, and made me feel comfortable right away. I appreciated her insights and support, and I'm looking forward to future sessions. Highly recommend!

Dr. Amera is super genuine, warm, and kind. She made the space safe immediately and that's so important when meeting virtually because sometimes it could be challenging. I love her vibe and realness.

She was very professional and made me feel comfortable talking to her about my issues when I was nervous but she seems very nice from our one session so far!
