Therapy for adults with anxiety in Philadelphia, NY & NJ
Calm the noise and figure out why it’s there in the first place.
Therapy for anxiety, relationships, and perinatal mental health in PA, NY & NJ.
You feel stuck in a worry thought loop.
You are on edge more than you’d like to be.
You wonder if your past trauma is showing up in your day to day.
You want more peace and calm in your relationships.
Transitions are really hard right now - whether it's entering young adulthood, a break up, getting married, trying to conceive or becoming pregnant, navigating new parenthood, or coping with shifting family dynamics.
Anxiety about ourselves and our relationships can be extremely challenging. I am a therapist with 6+ years of experience in the mental health field working with people around the big issues that create a lot of worry in their everyday lives. I have worked in private practice, community mental health, schools, and in arts after-school programs. I help people identify what their anxiety is all about, explore how and why it has developed, and learn tools to reduce anxiety.
You deserve to feel calm and present in your life.
Amanda Borson, LCSW
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I provide in person therapy to adults in Philadelphia, as well as online therapy to adults in NY, NJ and PA. I have worked with people around many issues and problems, but my passion is helping people who are struggling with anxiety around the “big” transitional moments in life.
I have always been curious about the stories we tell ourselves about who we are and why. It’s often those messages that get in our way, making us feel worried, lost, tense, or panicked.
I work with adults and couples around issues of anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, family conflict, and identity issues. I also specialize in perinatal mental health, including infertility, pregnancy, postpartum anxiety and depression, pregnancy loss and pregnancy after loss. I love helping individuals and couples in interracial or intercultural relationships better understand their own selves so they can show up fully for their partners.
As a therapist, I explore with you how your own coming-of-age story, relationships and systems you interact with influence your mental health, so that you can understand more of what is going on and figure out how you can feel better and thrive.
No matter why you’re coming to therapy, I can help you uncover why you’re so anxious, build curiosity around what is holding you back, and teach you skills to live with more ease and calm.
