Amanda Gibson
About the Therapist
I believe therapy should be a safe, affirming space where clients can explore and embrace their authentic selves without fear of judgment. I am LGBTQIA affirming, non-traditional relationship affirming, sex-positive, and neurodiversity-affirming, with experience supporting late-diagnosed adults. I also bring lived experience with chronic illness, which informs my understanding of how health challenges can affect mental health and life transitions.

I utilize an eclectic mix of modalities, including Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and I believe that you are the expert on your own life. I work alongside clients navigating depression, anxiety, PTSD, trauma, and life transitions. I hold a Master of Social Work from The Ohio State University and have over 15 years of experience in Child Welfare, Foster Care, and Adolescent & Adult Mental Health. My intention is for every client to feel seen, heard, and supported as they grow into their most authentic self.
