I’m Amanda. I am a pre-licensed professional who is committed to helping teens and adults rise above challenges and adversity. My work is trauma-focused and is oriented in psychodynamic and humanistic techniques. I believe in taking a collaborative approach to helping clients reach their goals. My therapeutic orientation is based on psychodynamic and humanistic theories of psychology. Psychodynamic psychotherapy aims to connect a client’s past experiences to their present difficulties. Humanistic psychotherapy focuses on each client as a unique individual who has the power to make change within themselves. I am a graduate from the Saint Michael's College Clinical Psychology master's program and I am currently under the supervision of Amy Dingman-Parini, Licensed Psychologist- MA. 802-489-6023 | amandapachecosilva@risingabovevt.com
