Amanda is a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with a strong educational foundation in both psychology and nursing. She earned her Bachelor of Science in Psychology with a minor in Business from Eastern Kentucky University, her Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Bellarmine University, and her Master of Science in Nursing with a specialization as a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner from Walden University.

Amanda has experience providing comprehensive psychiatric care to adolescents and adults through telehealth, including psychiatric evaluations, diagnosis, medication management, and ongoing treatment. Her clinical interests include anxiety, depression, ADHD, PTSD, OCD, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia and other psychotic disorders, and sleep-related concerns.

Amanda is also expanding her expertise in functional and integrative psychiatry through a fellowship with Psychiatry Redefined. This training complements traditional psychiatric care by exploring how factors such as nutrition, lifestyle, sleep, and overall physical health may influence mental health and emotional well-being.

Her treatment philosophy is compassionate, collaborative, and patient-centered. Amanda believes in looking beyond a diagnosis to understand the whole person and the factors that may be contributing to their symptoms. She works closely with patients to develop individualized, evidence-based treatment plans and values education and shared decision-making so patients feel informed and involved in their care.

Amanda strives to create a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where patients feel heard, respected, and comfortable discussing their concerns. Her goal is to build strong therapeutic relationships and help patients achieve meaningful improvements in their mental health, overall well-being, and quality of life.
