Hi, I’m Amanda

I’m not your typical therapist. I’m here to help you navigate the chaos, face the monsters, and rewrite your story. At Harmony Within Counselling, I specialize in trauma and mood disorders. I work with those battling anxiety, depression, and the challenges that come with being part of the LGBTQIA community.

Think of me as your companion on this journey – not with a magic wand, but with unwavering support and a fierce belief in your strength. You deserve a space where you feel safe, heard, and empowered.

The future isn’t fixed. It’s yours to create. Let’s chart the course together.

How I Help

Trauma

I offer compassionate support for religious trauma recovery, providing a safe space to process your experiences, reclaim your autonomy, and heal from deep-rooted wounds. Together, we’ll navigate the complexities of faith, identity, and personal truth, empowering you to break free from harmful conditioning and step into a life of clarity and self-trust.

If you're feeling tired, hopeless, or weighed down by the past, Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) offers a gentle yet powerful way to release trauma and find relief. In our sessions, I’ll guide you through a process designed to help you break free from distressing memories, allowing you to move forward with more clarity, resilience, and hope. You don’t have to stay stuck—healing is possible.

LGBTQIA+

I provide supportive mental health screenings, including HRT and surgery readiness evaluations, in a space where you are seen, respected, and affirmed. My goal is to make this process as smooth and empowering as possible, ensuring you have the compassionate support you deserve as you take these meaningful steps in your journey.

Together, We Can Explore:


Your Identity

“Am I living by my own rules, or am I still playing by someone else’s?”


Trauma and Development

"What if the wounds of my past are the very source of my strength?"


Family and Relationships

“Am I living to honor my truth, or am I still trying to fit into someone else’s version of who I should be?”


Emotional Balance

“Am I letting fear control my story, or am I ready to reclaim my peace and power?”


Stress and Anxiety

“Am I letting my emotions dictate my path, or am I learning to wield them as my greatest ally?”
