Getting to know Amanda Cisneros
I am inspired to work in the field of mental health care because I enjoy helping clients navigate difficult life transitions and supporting them in practicing self-compassion and validating their own experiences. I find it rewarding to incorporate humor and metaphors to explore challenging concepts, making them more accessible. Additionally, I love finding unique solutions and skills that clients can apply to real-life issues, empowering them to better manage their struggles and foster growth. I hold a Master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from the University of San Diego, which has equipped me with the knowledge and skills to provide effective, compassionate care.
What should a new client know about working with you?
I ensure that clients feel heard and understood by working collaboratively with them to stay on track with their goals. I invite regular feedback during sessions to ensure we are meeting their needs and addressing any concerns they may have. This ongoing communication helps me tailor the therapeutic process to their individual needs, fostering a sense of partnership and understanding.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
I build trust and a strong therapeutic alliance by prioritizing a safe and welcoming space in virtual therapy, free of judgment and shame. I use humor, creativity, and metaphors to help clients connect with deeper parts of themselves, making the process more engaging and meaningful. Additionally, I follow their lead and respect their pace when addressing difficult issues, which helps create a sense of safety, respect, and partnership in our work together.
