Getting to know Amanda Jackson
Hi there, I'm Amanda!
My name is Amanda Jackson, and I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC). My approach is to provide a safe space where you can process your feelings and experiences without fear of judgment.
My approach
I use a client-centered approach to therapy, meeting clients where they are at the start of each session. Building rapport and trust is very important to me. Along with client-centered therapy, I incorporate elements of CBT, Play Therapy, Art Therapy, and other therapeutic approaches as appropriate.
My focus
I have experience working with individuals who have experienced childhood trauma, low self-esteem, divorce, anxiety, grief and loss (including pet loss and bereavement), various kinds of life stress, and foster/adopt children and families. I have worked with children (from infants to preteens), families, and adults (ages 18 to 71).
My communication style
I strive to create a warm and safe environment during sessions. I'm not here to judge you. I actively listen and validate your feelings and experiences, providing a safe space for processing and growth. Vulnerability can be uncomfortable, and I work to make our sessions as comfortable as possible.
My journey to therapy
I've always been the person my friends turned to for support and to process their emotions. Becoming a therapist felt like a natural step. Helping people through their feelings and experiences is incredibly meaningful to me.
My goals for you
I set goals based on your needs and wants for therapy. Goal setting is a collaborative process, and I always include you in it.
My first session with you
Our first session will focus on building trust and rapport. I encourage clients to ask me questions to help them feel as comfortable as possible.
