Amanda's Story
Amanda Veszi's journey as a Child and Family Therapist reflects her deep commitment to making a positive impact on the lives of children and youth. With a background in social work and fueled by a passion for helping young individuals navigate their challenges, Amanda embarked on a fulfilling career dedicated to mental health and well-being.
As a mother of two, Amanda's personal experiences further fueled her empathy and understanding of the complexities that families face. Drawing from her early days as a social worker, Amanda developed a keen interest in addressing the unique mental health needs of children and adolescents. Recognizing the importance of early intervention, she sought to equip herself with a diverse skill set to better serve her clients.
Amanda's commitment to continuous learning led her to become a certified facilitator of Mental Health First Aid, demonstrating her dedication to promoting mental health awareness and providing essential support in times of crisis. Additionally, Amanda delved into the world of Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy, a powerful technique for individuals coping with trauma and emotional distress.
In her evolving role as a therapist, Amanda is currently in the process of creating innovative programming for parents and teachers. Understanding the vital role that caregivers and educators play in a child's life, she aims to empower them with the tools and knowledge needed to navigate the challenges associated with big emotions in children. By bridging the gap between home and school environments, Amanda envisions a holistic approach to fostering the emotional well-being of the young minds under her care.
Amanda Veszi's story is one of dedication, compassion, and a relentless pursuit of providing support to the most vulnerable members of our community.

Compassion in Every Session
I believe everyone deserves to feel heard and understood. To do this, I strive to provide a safe, nurturing space where you can freely express, explore, and empower yourself.
