Are you currently accepting new clients?

Yes, I usually keep a few openings each week, though sometimes there's a short waitlist.

Do you work with neurodivergent adults, including those late-diagnosed or self-identified?

Absolutely. I welcome adults at all stages of understanding their neurodivergence, with a neuroaffirming approach that centers your unique strengths and experiences.

Do I need a formal diagnosis to start therapy with you?

No. Whether you have a formal diagnosis or are simply seeking support with challenges like burnout or overwhelm, you're welcome here.

Fill out the consultation form on my desktop site or email me at amanda@dramandapress.com. We'll schedule a brief call to connect and see if it feels like a good fit before starting sessions.

What's your background?

I trained as a speech-language therapist (City University London, 2001) and worked as a licensed speech pathologist. I hold a master's in psychology (Liverpool University) and a doctorate in psychology (California Southern University). Currently, I work at the Center for Connection providing therapy and assessment to neurodivergent children, teens, and adults.

Do you offer online or in-person sessions?

Sessions are primarily held securely online, giving you flexibility and comfort.

Do you accept insurance?

I'm out-of-network and don't bill insurance directly but provide superbills for you to submit for possible reimbursement.

Do you provide Good Faith Estimates?

Yes. In compliance with the No Surprises Act, I provide Good Faith Estimates of expected costs upon request or before we begin working together.

What kinds of therapy do you provide?

I integrate trauma-informed and neuroaffirming approaches with Compassion Focused Therapy, Internal Family Systems, ACT, Polyvagal Theory, attachment based and somatic approaches.

What can I expect in a session?

Sessions are usually 50-55 minutes. In our first meeting, we'll explore your goals and how I work, so you can decide if it feels right.

How often do clients meet with you?

Most start weekly, then adjust frequency as needed based on your journey.

Can I contact you between sessions?

Yes, for scheduling or non-urgent matters via email.

What is your cancellation policy if I need to miss a session?

Cancellations require 48 hours' notice so I have time to offer your spot to others on the waitlist. Cancellations with less than 48 hours' notice are charged the full session fee. I understand that emergencies sometimes happen (illness, accidents, etc.); in those cases, I offer to reschedule within 2–3 business days if I have openings, without a fee.

Can I call you if I'm having a clinical emergency?

I'm not able to provide emergency services. Please call 988, go to the nearest emergency room, or use other crisis resources if you need immediate help.

Is your practice inclusive?

Yes, I'm committed to creating a safe, welcoming space for LGBTQ+ individuals and people from diverse cultural, racial, and neurodivergent backgrounds.

Are you an ally to other populations?

Yes. I strive to be affirming and supportive of all marginalized groups and identities.
