Getting to know Amanda Piekstra Jara De La Vega

IMPORTANT: Thriveworks cannot provide services to clients with Medicaid coverage. If you have Medicaid, please contact your plan directly to find an in-network provider. For all other insurance plans, Thriveworks will verify your benefits after you book through Zocdoc. If verification isn't completed before your visit, you'll be charged our self-pay rate of $240 for that session. AFTER YOU BOOK: Complete these steps to avoid cancellation or being switched to self-pay. 1. Check your email for instructions to set up your Thriveworks account. Within your Thriveworks’ account, sign consent forms and add a valid credit card, which will be automatically charged for copays, fees, post-insurance balances, and self-pay amounts. 2. If using insurance, upload clear photos of the front and back of your insurance card. 3. Expect a confirmation call from our team to verify your information and answer questions. CANCELLATION POLICY: Provide 48 hours advance notice to avoid the $135 late cancellation fee. I am a master's level counselor with 5 years of experience providing community-based and outpatient mental health services. I specialize in trauma-informed care and work primarily with adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, depression, grief, stress, identity exploration, cultural and life transitions, and relationship challenges that impact emotional well-being. I earned my master's degree in counseling for mental health and wellness from New York University. My work is guided by an integrative, trauma-informed approach that incorporates psychodynamic principles, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy‚Äìinformed skills, and person-centered therapy. Starting therapy can feel like a big step, especially during times of stress or uncertainty. I strive to create a supportive, compassionate space where clients can move at a comfortable pace, build insight, strengthen emotional regulation, and work toward meaningful personal growth.
