Getting to know Amanda Gilchrist

I'm Amanda Gilchrist, a licensed professional counselor who specializes in supporting women navigating ADHD, anxiety, trauma, and the complicated weight of trying to hold it all together when your brain just doesn't work the way the world expects it to. I earned my Master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and have worked across both public and private sectors in South Carolina and Georgia, supporting people through crisis response, trauma-informed care, care coordination, and behavioral health integration. That work taught me to see the whole person - not just the diagnosis - and to meet people where they actually are, not where a checklist says they should be. I bring that same lens into private practice today. Specialties: ADHD, Women's Issues, and Trauma/PTSD

What should a new client know about working with you?

Prior to the initial session, clients will be asked to complete intake questionnaire and consent forms. This will allow optimal use of our time together. Our initial session is a perfect time for you to assess whether I am the provider that can best support you in your healing journey. In addition, it is my commitment in the initial session to provide each client something they can walk away with to begin their journey towards their goals immediately.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
