Hi! I'm so glad you're here. I appreciate you taking time to find the right therapist for your needs. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I have been practicing since 2010 providing individual and group therapy. I have a background in substance abuse counseling as well as working in several university counseling services (RPI, Vassar and Boston College). I have worked with my clients on issues such as adjustment, depression, anxiety and trauma. My approach involves CBT and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy strategies to help clients understand and cope with symptoms. By challenging thoughts, feelings and behaviors, clients learn to take new perspectives that leave the door open for healthy, positive changes. I also have a strong background in motivation enhancement and Internal family systems. My hope is that clients will find a safe and protected space to be curious about their internal emotional experience. I aim to validate and affirm as well as provide new perspectives, so that clients feel able to make meaningful change.

Hi, I’m Amanda, a licensed clinical social worker. I work with adults and young adults who are feeling stressed, overwhelmed, or stuck in patterns that no longer feel aligned with who they want to be. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, or just feeling disconnected from yourself, my goal is to provide a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can be heard, understood, and supported. I take a collaborative, strengths-based approach to therapy. Together, we’ll explore what matters most to you, identify patterns that may be holding you back, and develop practical tools to help you manage stress, regulate emotions, and make choices that align with your values. I understand that life can feel overwhelming, and I’m here to help you navigate difficult emotions, gain clarity, and build healthier relationships with yourself and others. If you’re looking for support to process past experiences, cope with current challenges, or prepare for life transitions—like becoming a parent or navigating changes in your relationships—I can help you take the steps to feel more in control, resilient, and connected. You don’t have to face this alone, and it’s never too late to start prioritizing your well-being.

I’m a warm, insight-oriented therapist who offers a steady, compassionate space for adults navigating grief, relational wounds, and the impact of growing up around emotional chaos or inconsistency. My approach is grounded in deep listening and curiosity—I help clients slow down and make sense of their inner experience, uncovering patterns that may have once been protective but now feel limiting. Together, we create room for new ways of relating—to yourself, to others, and to your story. Healing, in my work, begins with being deeply seen and understood.

I am a licensed mental health therapist with many years of experience providing therapy to individuals, adolescents, groups, and occasionally couples in various settings. My experience has led me to connect with many individuals at different phases in their lives who wanted to change something but didn't know how. I have worked with various populations from so many backgrounds, and all that stuck out to me was the disfranchised. A person losing their sense of autonomy and self always left me with that question, "Can I do more?" In my journey as a provider, I want to uplift my clients and remind them they have always had a voice and power that is waiting.

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by New York rather than a city like New York City?

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in New York. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across New York from Buffalo to Rochester! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in New York.

Will my therapist take insurance?

When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on a specific issue?

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

What happens during the first therapy session?

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
