Amanda Moore
Welcome! I'm Amanda. I'm here to help you tackle the issues that drag you down; the concerns that keep you up at night; the fears that are holding you back. If you feel unfocused, uncertain, unmotivated, or misunderstood, you've come to the right place! I'm proud of you for taking the first big step toward self-improvement. I would love to schedule a session to learn about your unique challenges, your aspirations, and your goals for therapy.
First session
We will use our first session to become acquainted with one another. Together we will explore your background, identify your current challenges, define your counseling goals, and discuss treatment options.
Strengths
-Seven years of clinical experience as a counselor working in a variety of settlings, including three years in private practice. -Moved frequently as an Army brat, developing appreciation for cultural and subcultural diversity at a young age. -Eclectic approach to therapy, tailored to each client’s unique needs, abilities, and goals. If you're battling unhelpful thoughts, self-defeating behaviors, or overwhelming feelings like hopelessness and shame, you don't have to do it alone. I'm here to provide support and guidance on your path toward holistic wellness and fulfillment.
Ideal clients
My ideal clients include: -Young adults seeking support as they explore their identities, set professional and/or acedemic goals, and deal with challenges in their relationships -Mothers and fathers navigating parenting and partnership challenges -Individuals experiencing existential dread or spiritual discomfort -Anyone struggling with symptoms of ADHD or mood disorders such as depression, bipolar disorder, PMDD, seasonal affective disorder, and cyclothymia.
Treatment methods
Humanistic
I believe people are inherently good, and that everyone has potential for self-reflection and growth. Understanding how a client's unique experiences shape their worldview is an intregal part of effective therapy. I aim to provide empathetic, holistic, strengths-based treatment for every client, no matter what other treatment methods are included in their treatment plan.
Dialectical Behavior (DBT)
Incorporating techniques and concepts from DBT often benefits clients who are dealing with depression, substance abuse disorder, mood disorders, anxiety, and ADHD. Adolescents may especially benefit from gaining skills from DBT.
Existential
Always eager to share Yalom's wisdom, I recommend this approach for high-functioning clients who are troubled by existential issues. Using this approach we work together to tackle concerns such as death, freedom, and the meaning of life, while aiming to promote healing and personal fulfillment.
Solution-Focused Brief Treatment
This short-term approach is ideal for clients who want to create change pragmatically and efficiently. Emphasis is put on finding solutions to present problems, as well as exploring future aspirations.
