I’m Amanda Anderson, a Licensed Master Social Worker with an MSW in Mental Health and Trauma from the University of Denver and TBRI Practitioner certification. I’ve provided counseling and crisis support at Fort Bend Behavioral Health and Sanctuary Foster Care, and I bring eight years of teaching experience. I work with children and families facing trauma, crisis, foster care, reunification, and serious illness. Many feel overwhelmed or unheard. They seek stability, stronger relationships, coping skills, and the right resources so they can heal and move forward so they can heal, grow, and feel hopeful again.

I use a trauma-informed, attachment-based approach as a certified TBRI Practitioner. I specialize in childhood trauma, foster care and adoption, family reunification, crisis support, and serious illness. Clients can expect warmth, patience, and a collaborative plan built on their strengths, helping them feel safer, more connected, and ready to move forward.

Reaching out for support takes courage, and you don’t have to have everything figured out to begin. Whatever brought you here, you deserve to feel heard, supported, and hopeful about what’s ahead. I would be honored to walk alongside you, and I invite you to schedule an appointment whenever you’re ready to take that first step.

I'm a licensed professional counselor associate (LPC associate) and a graduate of Texas A&M University–Central Texas. My experience spans a continuum of care, from inpatient treatment to intensive outpatient and outpatient settings, including a year-long internship at an inpatient hospital. I have also facilitated violence prevention groups and worked with court-mandated individuals. My approach is grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). While I do not currently specialize in one specific area, I'm committed to continually expanding my knowledge across a broad range of mental health concerns and client populations.

My approach to counseling is grounded in the belief that you have the power and the reins in your own life. I see my role as a sounding board, guide, and supportive partner. Stress management is an important part of my approach. I also believe counseling should consider the whole person—work, relationships, children, and pets all influence wellbeing.

I recognize choosing to begin counseling is a meaningful decision, and I don't take the time you share with me for granted. One of the quotes I've carried with me is, "Be the leader you wish you had." That idea reflects how I strive to show up—with honesty, compassion, respect, and genuine care. If you feel ready, I invite you to schedule an appointment.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Texas who has been practicing since 2005. I received my Master of Social Work and Bachelor of Social Work from Baylor University and also hold a Clinical Supervisor license, helping build the next generation of social work clinicians. Since graduating, I've pursued being a real and authentic partner to those navigating mental health concerns, working in both inpatient and outpatient settings with mild to severe presentations. I enjoy working with people dealing with depression, anxiety, relationship concerns, phase-of-life challenges, wellness issues, and substance use.

I draw from many therapeutic models—including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness, problem-solving, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and motivational interviewing—to create a unique experience for each person. I'll work to give you a real, practical space to approach your concerns and navigate meaningful change.

I encourage you to take that first courageous step and schedule a session. We'll work together because many times we need new tools to handle what life has given us, and we'll build that toolbox together. Through conversation, practical application, and maybe a little laughter, we'll journey toward a place of hope and healing.
