Intellectual honesty for the “Stuck and Successful”
Hi, I'm Amanda, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist specializing in helping adults navigate their anxieties around meaning, purpose, and mortality. I have been in practice since 2018, providing a dedicated space for those who have outgrown standard therapeutic approaches.
My work is designed to go past daily surface problems to address the core restlessness that status and routine changes cannot fix. This isn't about pathologizing your experience; it is about recognizing that your anxiety over lost time and a missing sense of purpose is an honest reaction to a life currently being lived in the margins. I provide a steady, engaged presence as we navigate these complexities together, helping you bridge the gap between seeing the path and beginning the work of meaningful change.
How We Work Together
The Grief of Loss: Confronting your finite mortality and acknowledging the roles, time, and unlived versions of yourself you feel have already slipped away.
The Unlived Life: Navigating the fear that you are on the "wrong" path, or that you have simply been going through the motions without knowing what purpose you actually wanted to build toward.
Choice Paralysis: Managing the agony of the trade-off—both the struggle of knowing every "yes" is a "no" to a thousand other lives, and the paralysis of not knowing where to start looking for real meaning.
Moving Toward Action: Identifying where existential anxiety has stalled your participation in society, breaking the stalemate, and developing the resolve to finally occupy the life you are already in.
