Amanda Amos

MA

I am currently working towards LMFT licensure and am under the supervision of Sarah Coleman MA, LMFT, RPT-S

I specialize in working with children birth through age 12, parents, and caregivers. As a mom of three myself, I understand that life can be filled with unexpected experiences. I strive to create a safe, non-judgmental space to share experiences, to be heard and to be validated. My approach is to join you on your journey and work together to set the goals for therapy.

My background includes ten years of experience working in early childhood development and mental health. I have extensive training in DC: 0-5-a diagnostic classification of mental health and development disorders of infancy and early childhood, play therapy and Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT).
