Learn to break free from negative patterns that are keeping you stuck.
We offer therapy services for Philadelphia-area women to help them get out of their own way and find freedom.
COVID-19 UPDATE: We have carefully reopened on a limited schedule. We still (and always) offer remote phone & video sessions with HIPPA compliant software.
Substance Abuse:
Whether you just got our of rehab or are looking to reevaluate your relationship with alcohol or other substances, we personally know what its like to struggle with addiction and are ready to help. We treat substance use disorders from a holistic and individual approach. There are many ways to recover and we are here to help you find the path that works best for you and your life. You don't need to struggle or worry about your drinking habits, there is hope!
Trauma:
All our clinicians are trauma-informed, meaning that we understand that trauma in this day and age means a lot more than just physical, emotional or sexual abuse. We understand that trauma is not always about the event that happened to you, but how it impacts your body and your life. Regardless of what you have or have not been through, we are here to help you work through your past experiences that are keeping you stuck. Through revolutionary techniques like EMDR and Brainspotting, hope and change is possible!
Anxiety:
Unlike regular worries, anxiety manifests when your racing thoughts and concerns prevent you from living your life and accomplishing things that are important to you. It can be debilitating and we want you to know, you are not alone! Our clinicians know what its like to struggle with chronic anxiety and will give you the tools and coping skills to break free from your negative and intrusive thought patterns and start living a life you love. We have a proven track record of helping women greatly reduce their symptoms, including panic attacks.
Depression:
Whether you are struggling to get out of bed in the morning or simply not enjoying your life the way you used to, depression can seriously impact your quality of life. Anxiety and depression often go hand in hand and we are experts at treating both. Depression often feels like you are stuck in a dark tunnel. We know what it's like to be where you are and we have the skills to help you navigate out of it and guide you into the light.
Eating Disorders:
Whether you are sick of dieting and looking to love yourself or are struggling with an eating disorder, you have come to the right place. We are proud Health at Every Size providers and believe FULL recovery from an eating disorder is possible. With therapists who are in recovery from eating disorders themselves, we believe that everyone deserves to live a life that is fulfilling and free from constantly worrying about your food or body.
Hello!
I'm Amanda E. White.
As someone who has recovered from trauma, substance abuse, and an eating disorder - I know what is like to be where you are. I understand that women are often misdiagnosed or misunderstood because the symptoms of eating disorders, addiction, trauma and anxiety tend to overlap. I’ve made it my mission to team up with relatable therapists to provide compassionate, un-intimidating therapy that also provides you with real tools to create real change.
We believe women heal most effectively when they are treated as whole people, not as their diagnosis - that’s why we empower women through therapy, health, and wellness so they can move beyond their limiting beliefs and feel fulfilled.
I started therapy for women after working at mental health centers in the Philadelphia area and being frustrated with the lack of modern approaches to therapy.

We Believe In Doing Therapy Differently
Therapy how and when you need it
Easy and unintimidating
We specialize in overlapping issues
We embrace technology to the fullest - because therapy shouldn’t be old-fashioned! We are proud to offer therapy both in person or via HIPPA compliant video sessions. When you are our client, you will also have your own private portal where you can make appointments, pay balances, and get access to statements for insurance. [view info on fees and insurance]
Taking the first step in attending a therapy appointment is no easy feat - and that’s why we make all appointments as comfortable as possible. You’ll have the opportunity to learn more about your therapist prior to your appointment, and if you decide to do your sessions in our office - you’ll love the easygoing, relaxed vibe. (No old men recording notes about you in a basement)
We believe that healing happens best when you’re treated as a whole person - not a set of symptoms - that’s why our therapists specialize in a holistic approach that treats all of your overlapping issues. We believe therapy is for everyone, regardless if you have a mental health diagnosis.

“No one has been able to help me like she has”
"Working with Amanda has been an incredible experience. I’ve seen a variety of therapists for over a decade now, and no one has been able to help me like she has. It sounds corny, but she’s given me hope – hope that I can outgrow the patterns that aren’t serving me anymore, that I can find meaningful relationships with friends and family, that I can live without letting my addiction run my life."
