Amanda is a deeply empathetic psychotherapist dedicated to supporting adults of all ages, teenagers, and children. A significant portion of her practice is devoted to assisting individuals with diagnosed or undiagnosed ADHD and/or autism, though her expertise extends broadly to other complex challenges such as guilt, shame, perfectionism, and procrastination. Embracing an integrative therapeutic philosophy, Amanda skillfully blends psychoanalysis, psychodynamic, existential, Gestalt, Transactional Analysis, Schema Therapy, and Mindfulness techniques to offer a truly personalized experience. In her sessions, she balances space for deep reflection with expert guidance, consistently exploring past experiences to understand their present impact and focusing on profound emotional processes. Amanda is committed to open-ended therapy, flexibly adapting to each client’s unique needs, and enriching the dialogue with metaphors and appropriate humor. She fosters an encouraging environment, helping clients reframe problems, gain new perspectives, and develop robust tools for long-term wellbeing and relapse prevention. Her practice warmly welcomes diverse client groups, including individuals with neurodiversity, those living with serious medical conditions, students, young adults, parents, caregivers, and older adults.

The platform is really great
The platform is really great. It's easy to connect and have sessions. It helps you find the right specialist for your needs. I’ve been working with one specialist for a while now, and I really like the sessions. Everything is simple and smooth. Definitely recommend it!

I've already had a few sessions
I've already had a few sessions through Pleso and can't recommend this platform enough. Registering was easy and after submitting the test I was presented with three therapiest recommendations which match my therapy needs best (one of them was actually the person recommended by a friend, so that was a big plus). Booking sessions is very easy and I like the fact that I can join them via the email links, which is very convenient. I will be recommending Pleso to my friends and family, making appointments and attending therapies couldn't be easier, which is very important if someone struggles and needs help.

Nice platform
Nice platform. All the therapists on the platform share a lot of details about themselves, so you can choose someone based on relevant info. I have been using it for a month but it is easy and comfortable, to be doing it from my home.

Pleso Therapy is a helpful platform
Pleso Therapy is a helpful platform that supports me in managing my anxiety and improving my relationship with my partner. What stands out most is the initial test I take, which helps me find the therapist who fits my specific needs. This approach makes the process more efficient, saving me time and ensuring that I’m matched with someone who aligns with my requirements from the start.

I was looking for a therapist
I was looking for a therapist for quite some time and after a few tries was giving up. I've decided to give pleso a chance because of the fact, that the prices don't vary between therapists (so I could choose a person not thinking of my budget). The platform is great, I did the test and got recommended my therapist. I've had 3 sessions so far and I already feel the positive impact of the therapy.
