Amanda Hollis, LICSW — Therapist in Alabama

Hi there, I'm Amanda!

I specialize in working with people who are motivated, courageous, and open to exploring their inner world. Even if they're not quite sure what that may look like.

My focus

My approach is person-centered and trauma-informed, with a strong foundation in CBT.

My approach

I offer a warm, grounded, and collaborative space where clients can slow down, reflect, and better understand themselves.

My communication style

I create a space where you can share openly without judgment. I listen carefully, ask thoughtful questions, and work alongside you to understand what matters most. Together we explore patterns and possibilities at a pace that feels right for you.

My journey to mental healthcare

I've always been drawn to understanding how people navigate difficult times. My own experiences with life's challenges taught me the value of having someone truly listen and meet you where you are. That's what I bring to our work together.

My goals for you

During our sessions, you'll feel heard and understood. It starts with one conversation, one idea, or one question. We'll explore what's been on your mind and work together toward the changes you're seeking.

Our first session

During our first session, I'll gather some information to understand what brings you in and what you're hoping to work on. Together we'll begin creating a plan that addresses your specific struggles and goals.
