Getting to know Amanda Sneed

Hi there, I'm Amanda! Namaste! My name is Amanda Sneed and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I am a client-centered therapist that loves what I do. I believe it is an honor to walk alongside individuals in their journeys. I view myself as a guide as it is not my journey. My role is to assist in navigating individuals toward gaining insight and awareness into empowered choices and decisions. My approach I work with clients by combining cognitive behavior therapy with mindfulness practices. I work toward client building a strong sense of self and empowerment. I work with clients to build a strong sense of support and learn self-awareness to recognize patterns. In this awareness, clients can then create new opportunities for growth to support their own authentic journey. My focus My ideal client is anyone that is seeking change and looking to create more balance in their life. My goal is to create normalcy in the process of finding support during times when we need clarity. Whether or not there is an identified focus, I will walk individuals through gaining awareness and increasing skills to enhance life functioning through a client-centered and empowerment focus. I work with adults on a diverse range of issues. My experience includes working with individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, relationship issues, low self-esteem, difficult life transitions, and trauma (including working with women in a domestic violence shelter). I work with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and incorporate education and mindfulness approaches in conjunction to support each other. My professional experiences include a large social services agency and the Alzheimer's Association, in addition to working in group practice providing psychotherapy. I also have a working knowledge to include a holistic background by receiving specialty training from the Chicago College of Healing Arts. You will often find my rescue dogs accompanying me in our sessions.
