Hello! I'm Amanda, a licensed mental health counselor and behavior therapist serving Florida and Colorado via telehealth. In 2025, I founded Undivided Heart Mental Health, a practice centered around evidence-based and client-centered care that supports both teens and adults individually as they practice effective behavior change and mindfulness along with providing parent coaching for families with children currently managing mental health challenges.

My practice welcomes individuals from all backgrounds who are seeking compassionate, evidence-based mental health care. My therapeutic approach is grounded in proven clinical practices, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and other evidence-based interventions tailored to each client's unique needs and goals. Treatment always begins with sound clinical, evidence-based care. When a client identifies their Christian faith as an important part of their life and healing journey, Scripture and faith-based principles may be thoughtfully integrated in a reflective and therapeutic manner to foster insight, hope, emotional regulation, and resilience. Faith is never used as a substitute for clinical intervention but serves as a complementary resource when it is meaningful to the client.
