Getting to know Amanda Melissa Parish

Hi there, I'm Amanda Melissa! Change is hard. I am so PROUD of you for taking the first step to seek help because let's face it, admitting you need help and asking for it, is really hard. My goal is to provide a safe, non-judgmental space for you to sort through the pieces and find your power again. I find it important to build an authentic relationship where there can be validation and some gentle challenges to help you grow into the version of yourself that you want to be. My approach I work from a strength-based and person-centered approach because I believe that you should always be the expert in your own recovery, even if you need a little push to get there. I have training in a few different modalities, and I am trauma-informed. I have extensive experience with substance abuse as well. My focus Are you struggling with racing thoughts, a sense of panic, and worrying about a lot of things all of the time? Do you find yourself with low motivation, feeling hopeless, or having nightmares and/or flashbacks about the past? Are you using alcohol or any other substance to cope with what you find yourself struggling with? If any of the above sounds like you, and you are here reading this, I am so PROUD of you for taking the step to seek help because let's face it, admitting you need help AND asking for it, is really hard. However, you are here now, so are you ready to start making some progress? My communication style My goal is to provide a safe, nonjudgmental space for you to learn about your experiences and how it has shaped you, and explore ways to gain a greater sense of understanding and compassion towards yourself. My journey to mental healthcare I have been working with adults in a non-profit agency in the mental health and substance abuse field for 8 years prior to opening the practice. I currently work in an intensive outpatient program with adults with mental health and/or substance abuse.
