Amanda Lavoy

About Amanda

My name is Amanda, I am the Clinical Director and Owner of Amanda Lavoy Psychotherapy. I am a highly trained Registered Psychotherapist, with a passion for guiding individuals towards a more authentic and fulfilling life. Drawing from a psychoanalytic approach and through an attachment theory lens, I will help you to explore the unconscious mind, to unravel patterns, gain insight and foster lasting change. My approach is rooted in the belief that everyone has the capacity for growth. Whether you're struggling with relationship problems, anxiety, a personality disorder, regulating your emotions, or trying to navigate a difficult decision- I can help. By allowing a safe space for you to share vulnerably, I listen for pain points, core beliefs, attachment wounds and hidden relational traumas to help you to recognize patterns that are keeping you stuck or getting in the way. Through talk therapy and the incorporation of somatic processing, CBT, DBT and other interventions, you will build on existing skills while also adopting new skills for living well. If you're ready to take control of your mental health and embark on a journey of self-discovery, reach out today and schedule a free consultation.
