Mary Amanda Alls, LCSW, is a licensed clinical social worker with a passion for supporting clients on their journey toward emotional well-being and personal growth. She integrates evidence-based approaches such as CBT, ACT, and mindfulness-based therapies with somatic practices like breathwork and yoga to help clients manage stress, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Amanda has extensive experience working in diverse settings, including state hospitals, group homes, behavioral health hospitals, and pediatric emergency rooms, where she provided crisis intervention, de-escalation, and trauma-informed care.

Amanda’s therapeutic style is compassionate, collaborative, and grounded in mindfulness.
