Serene Therapy
Hello!
My name is Amanda, and I am the owner of Serene Therapy. What makes my practice unique is authenticity. I’m an open and honest clinician who understands that therapy can feel heavy and vulnerable at times. I aim to create a space where we can talk about the hard things while also finding moments of lightness, humor, and relief.
​
I believe healing happens when we feel safe enough to be real. You might laugh, cry, or experience a wide range of emotions, and you won’t go through any of it alone. I encourage open dialogue, curiosity, and self-compassion as we work together to make challenges feel more manageable.
​
My goal is to support each individual on their journey toward healing and growth, making the therapeutic process both meaningful and empowering. The focus is to build trust and connection, and through a compassionate and personalized approach, we can work together to find peace and navigate life's challenges.
My Story
I graduated from Stockton University with my Masters in Social Work. I started my career with a focus in addiction therapy, and over the last several years focused more on the challenges of mental health. Being able to witness growth and transformation; seeing clients gain insight, confidence, and a deeper connection with themselves is why I love what I do. I am committed to making this process as easy and comfortable as possible.
​I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in the state of NJ (#44SC06370500). I completed a certification in clinical trauma, and have advanced training in perinatal mental health. If you are looking for a specific modality, please reach out as I utilize various different approaches.
