Meet Amanda Backenstoes
Licensed Clinical Social Worker
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 20 years of experience supporting adults, couples, children, and adolescents. My work focuses on helping individuals navigate depression, anxiety, and trauma while building resilience, insight, and meaningful change.
I believe in a holistic approach to wellness that honors the connection between mind, body, and emotions. Therapy is not a one-size-fits-all process, and I am committed to meeting you where you are. I recognize that you are the expert in your own life, and my role is to walk alongside you as a collaborative guide.
I utilize evidence-based therapeutic approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Solution-Focused Therapy. These methods allow us to address current challenges, develop effective coping skills, and work toward practica, achievable goals-while remaining grounded in compassion and curiosity.
Book Your Session with Amanda
My goal is to create a safe, supportive, and nonjudgemental space where you can feel heard, understood, and empowered. Whether you are seeking support for yourself, your relationship, or your child, I am honored to be a part of your journey toward healing and growth.
