Amanda Johns, LCSW

Meet Amanda

Do you ever wonder why it is that you think or behave as you do? Do you sometimes (or all the time) feel like you are different than everyone else and you don't know why? Do you want answers? Are you tired of answering the same "how does that make you feel" questions over and over? If any of these are "yes" I might be the right therapist for you.


I want to help you change your life.


I want my clients to find relief from the difficult feelings and the impact of trauma. I want my clients to feel like they can belong. I can teach you new ways of coping and I can help you to see your strengths. We will work together towards healing. I want you to be able to live as your authentic self. 


No more masking, no more pretending, no more hiding.


Life can be really hard when we don't understand ourselves, or those closest to us - and when others don’t understand us. I'm here to help. You aren't alone in this. We can work together to sort through what keeps you feeling trapped. You deserve space to grow within a safe and trusting therapeutic relationship.


I provide counseling to individuals, couples and families (children, teens and adults). My style is compassionate and empathetic while also being direct and to the point. I specialize in cases that are often labeled as "difficult" and clients who have been to therapy before yet haven't had sustained change. I keep a small caseload in order to give you the attention you need and deserve. I offer specialized services for the following: Narcissistic Abuse, Autism, Trauma, Personality Disorders, Therapy for Therapists and Adoptees who need support around adoption trauma and/or issues of attachment.


I am an eclectic therapist that uses aspects of Internal Family Systems (IFS), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Attachment Focused Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Play Therapy, Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) and Psychodynamic Therapy. I tailor my approach to the specific needs of each individual. I utilize evidence-based approaches and continually engage in research and continuing education in order to remain updated on the latest information. 


If you are a therapist looking for LSW or LCSW supervision, I am available for this service. I will create a brave space for you to explore the work you are doing with clients, challenge you to learn about yourself as therapist, push you to engage in ethical decision making, and examine issues related to social justice and intersectionality that may impact your client. I have been providing supervision to clinicians since 2017.
