Amanda Perkins Therapy LLCMarriage & Family Therapist, LMFT, CAAP, MA (she, her)

About

I work with families, couples, and individuals to help create change, improve communication, strengthen relationships, and develop a strong sense of self-worth. I believe everyone is capable of growth and transformation. My therapeutic style is warm, supportive, and encouraging. I use humor to provide new ways of relating, encourage movement away from defensive reactions, and add a light touch to intense moments. I utilize a blend of Animal Assisted Interventions (AAI) and experiential techniques when working with clients. AAI can enhance our work on self-awareness, communication, relationships, coping skills, and teamwork. Treatment will focus on hope and healing, not on pathology and problems. I can help address negative coping patterns, emotions, and perceptions as they apply to individual experiences as well as within relationships. As we work together, you will develop your sense of self-worth and learn new skills, allowing you to experience different ways of living.
