​
Hi, I’m Amanda (she/her), a registered social worker with a Master’s and Bachelor’s degree in Social Work.
I work with adults who are living with chronic pain, chronic illness, anxiety, and depression. I’m especially passionate about supporting people as they navigate the emotional impact of long-term health conditions, whether that includes grief, identity changes, overwhelm, or adjusting to a “new normal.”
In our work together, I strive to create a space where you feel truly heard, respected, and supported. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and grounded in evidence-based practices. I believe counselling should move at your pace and be centered on what matters most to you, including improving your overall quality of life.
​
​Based in Timmins, Ontario, I offer virtual counselling services to adults across Ontario, making support accessible from the comfort and privacy of your own space.
​
I'm committed to offering a space that is inclusive, non-judgmental, and grounded in care.
