About Amanda Sweetbark, LPC (CO), LPCC (CA)

I’m here to help you connect to hope and believe in yourself and recovery again.

I’m a Colorado-based licensed therapist that believes in real and sustainable change. I specialize in individualized treatment for long-term sufferers of eating disorders, trauma, and mood and anxiety disorders.

Growth begins with one brave action.

Maybe you…

  • are here because you are struggling and are ready to get the support you need.

  • want to better understand yourself and your experiences.

  • Are here to change your life and find yourself again.

Whatever brought you here, you are one step away from making lasting change.

Are you ready to take the first step to becoming you again?

HOW I WORK

At the core of my approach to therapy is the belief that when we embrace uncertainty and focus more on awareness and understanding, we unlock the power to change our lives.

I know that everyone is capable of healing from past traumas, finding a way to live peacefully with mental illnesses, and overcoming avoidance and our harmful ways of coping with pain. On our darkest days, we sometimes lose our ability to connect with hope. I support my clients by holding hope for you during the darkest, hardest days until you are able to reconnect to it yourself.

AUTHENTIC.

THERAPY WITH ME IS:

I believe that my clients and I are partners on this road to recovery and healing. I don’t make promises I can’t keep, I meet you where you are at, and I bring my whole self into our therapeutic relationship. In our work together, I am a genuine, authentic, real human being.

INTENTIONAL.

When I say something, I mean it. I believe that one of the best things we can learn from therapy is how to be more intentional, effective, and engaged in your own life. From the way I structure sessions, to the words I say, and the topics we discuss, I aim to practice what I preach.

DIRECT.

Both brutal honesty and sugarcoating the truth can be harmful to the growth process. I believe in pairing directness with kindness when it comes to engaging with areas of improvement. Feedback is helpful, and I don’t think it needs to hurt to be helpful.
