ABOUT BRISCOE THERAPY
MEET THE THERAPIST
Briscoe Therapy is committed to offering compassionate and effective therapy services to help individuals navigate life's challenges. Amanda's approach is client-centered, and she strives to create a collaborative and nurturing therapeutic environment.
EXPERIENCE & APPROACH
With over 5 years of experience in private practice, Amanda has specialized in working with teens, the LGBTQ community, couples, and families involved in the child welfare system. She has a strong background in cognitive-behavioral therapy and attachment theory.
She uses an approach of gratitude, with the belief system that suffering doesn't come from events themselves, but from internal fragmentation created when individuals can't fully feel or integrate experiences. Over time, that fragmentation shape's identity and perception. Healing happens when we reclaim the ability to hold all of life-including pain-without resistance, restoring inner coherence and wholeness.
