These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Amanda Adams. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Teen Counseling might be different.

My son felt very comfortable and hopeful after our first meeting. As a parent, I felt that we chose the right place for my son's concerns and external emotional support.

Amanda Adams is a wonderful therapist. She understands how my brain works and helps me better understand myself. She explains the clinical background in an easy to understand way and adapts examples to fit with my personality / interests. She genuinely cares about her patients and their well-being. She offers helpful suggestions to alleviate stress and keep myself grounded. She is truly fabulous and I feel incredibly lucky I was matched with her for this journey

I came into therapy skeptical on whether it could actually help and have been blown away. My outlook on life has changed for the better. Amanda has been so kind and patient with me. I really feel like I can trust her with anything and that she has my back for every challenge in life. I didn't realize how many things were an issue in my life until we sat down and took a very critical look at my biggest obstacles. Thank you Amanda for helping me fix my life ❤️

This sweet lady is already helping me move mountains in my life. If you’re reading these reviews because you’re nervous about starting, do it and never look back. You will be so glad you did ❣️

Amanda is one of a kind! She isn’t afraid to say what she knows you don’t want to hear and still says it from a place of love and support. She can step in and be the best friend, the mom, the tough love or just the listener. Therapy with her the last few months has changed my life and no one has made me comfortable with emotions and healing like Amanda has. She has truly made me feel like family and I don’t know what I’d do without her!

So far she's been so great.

Written on Aug 23, 2022 after therapy with Amanda for 2 weeks on issues concerning stress, anxiety, lgbt, family conflicts, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting issues, self esteem, coping with life changes, compassion fatigue, and adhd

Simply put, Amanda Adams is my perfect therapy match. She listens to my concerns and clearly prepares for meeting with me by reading the messages, journal entries and worksheets I send her throughout the week. She cares and helps me navigate my life challenges and traumas, but always works to use my personal strengths to keep me in the drivers seat of my own life.

I’ve only worked with Amanda for a short time now but she’s already shown me how powerful great therapy can be! From day one she’s made me feel heard, understood, and validated. She actually puts effort into showing she cares and I really enjoy how our conversations feel natural more than clinical.

Amanda Adam's has been an extremely supportive therapist. She understands and addresses all of my primary concerns. Very intelligent and understands how to get to the core of issues. Amanda offers an extensive number of solutions to any issue I've faced, and has worked diligently with me to find exactly what works for me. She gives a safe space to be open and honest without anxiety or worry, and gives honest feedback. I highly recommend Amanda. She has been the best therapist I've had.

Work with me!
