Getting to know Amanda Shepard

Hi! I'm Amanda, and I've been working with clients in therapy since 2020. I'm originally from Hawai'i and now live in southern Utah. I love working with folks who need support navigating anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and trauma work. I believe having a great connection and a strong therapeutic relationship is essential to a meaningful and successful therapy journey. Outside of work, I enjoy making crafts, playing video games, watching movies, and visiting my local farmers market! In our first session together, here's what you can expect A first session with me usually involves asking a lot of questions, checking in on any anxieties or questions about the therapy process, and getting to know you by chatting about hobbies, interests, and identities. I'm open to answering questions you may have about me and aim to build a connection with you in the first session. My goal at the end of the first session to help you feel hopeful and calmer than you came in initially feeling. The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions It can be daunting to start or resume therapy with a new therapist. So I try my best to create a strong therapeutic relationship with my clients from the first session onward. Being in therapy myself and doing the work that I do, I know this is hard work, but it’s so meaningful and transformative. I find that a balance of having compassion and challenging my clients has been most helpful for those I work with. Approaches I also find useful are biopsychosocial, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), trauma-informed therapy, and parts therapy or Internal Family Systems (IFS). The clients I'm best positioned to serve I work best with older teens and young adults clients who need support navigating concerns such as anxiety, depression, life transitions, and relationship issues.

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.
