Getting to know Amanda Phillips

Hi there, I'm Amanda! My name is Amanda Phillips, and I am an LICSW licensed in Alabama and Iowa. I hold a Master's in Social Work from Roberts Wesleyan University. I strive to meet clients where they are, providing support and empowerment as they navigate ways to cope with both current and past traumas. My approach emphasizes walking alongside clients on their journey, helping them discover paths to healing while acknowledging that, although the past cannot be changed, growth and resilience are possible. My approach My therapy is rooted in trauma-informed care and a client-centered perspective. I prioritize creating a safe and supportive environment where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered. By recognizing the impact of trauma on a person's emotions, behaviors, and overall well-being, I tailor my approach to meet each client's unique needs and experiences. I work collaboratively with clients, honoring their autonomy and strengths, and focus on building trust as the foundation of the therapeutic relationship. My goal is to guide clients in their healing journey, fostering resilience and self-discovery while promoting strategies that support their long-term growth and well-being. My focus I have a strong background working with Veterans, Veteran partners, traumatic brain injury (TBI), military sexual trauma (MST), Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), Intimate Partner Violence (IPV), trauma, stress, depression, anxiety, adjustment disorders, addiction, and couples therapy. My communication style I like to be supportive of my clients. I also like to find ways to challenge them in a way that encourages critical thinking about their current situations while helping them find solutions to feel better. My journey to mental healthcare With over 20 years of experience in social work, I am deeply committed to advocating for individuals who often feel unheard in our society.
