Amanda Pifer

My communication style

I prioritize open communication to create a supportive, non-judgmental environment. I practice active listening and will give you opportunities to reflect on your experiences while in the presence of an empathetic partner. If we’re working through something challenging, you can expect me to be a calm and patient partner in your healing.

My journey to mental healthcare

After a career in the business world, a volunteer job working with trauma survivors showed me the power of connection. In a world that stresses independence, I believe in the power of community and interdependence. I’m driven by the belief that everyone has the capacity for growth, healing, and lasting change.

My goals for you

I see therapy as a partnership. Together, we’ll set goals that matter to you—whether that’s improving relationships, building self-esteem, or pursuing personal growth. As you gain new insights, we’ll adapt your plan to stay meaningful and supportive as you move toward where you want to be.

Our first session

Our first session will be a time for you and I to get to know one another and for me to learn more about your goals for therapy. It is an opportunity for you to explore whether or not you feel safe in my presence because that is extremely important for your growth.
