Amanda Soto

My communication style

Your sessions will feel like a supportive space where we are two friends catching up. It feels safe, inviting, and familiar. I am direct, authentic, and transparent, as I feel it is necessary to build trust. I have to be real with you in order to help you build insight into yourself and grow.

My journey to mental healthcare

I wanted to help people at the individual level through a one-on-one connection that fosters a trustworthy and supportive relationship. Seeing people achieve their goals and having a different perspective drives me to do this work. You will usually find me clapping with you and cheering you on.

My goals for you

Goal setting looks like you telling me what I can realistically help you achieve and us working together to make that happen. We brainstorm and prioritize what you deem as most important, and I am here to support you and help problem solve. If you are ever unsure of your goals, we will figure it out together.

Our first session

During our first session, I will assess your mental health symptoms and build rapport with you. We will discuss your goals and what you are looking for in therapy. We will determine if we are a good match.
