About Amanda
My formal path began in the clinical world - grounded in psychology, trauma recovery, and depth psychology. I earned my doctorate in Clinical Psychology (PsyD) and spent years studying the psyche’s defense patterns, attachment wounds, and the slow, courageous process of trauma resolution. My work with clients focused on complex trauma, and self-integration through Psychodynamic therapy, IFS, EMDR, EFT, DBT, and dreamwork.
Over time, the work began to move beyond research and the talking mind - into the body, the right-brain, the unconscious - those subtler ways experiences continue to live within us.
My own path has taught me that healing is rarely linear, but always possible.
Throughout my personal experiences of healing and transformation, I was able to integrate intuitive capacities that had long been present, but had gone unnamed. The work expanded to include somatic release, Jungian dreamwork, energy-based practices, and earth-centered traditions. I trained in Holy Fire Reiki, studied quantum healing approaches, and apprenticed in the Q’ero lineage.
Today, I integrate clinical depth and intuitive awareness in the spaces I hold, supporting others who intend to find themselves beneath trauma structures, inherited patterns, and long-held survival skills.
