About Amanda

Dr. Amanda Veldorale-Griffin helps people facing relationship stress, parenting strain, identity concerns, and mood or trauma-related challenges. She is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, and she aims to make the first steps into therapy feel straightforward and manageable.

Her style is collaborative and straightforward. She listens first and then works with each person to find practical ways forward. Her approach draws on Systemic therapy and other relational methods that consider how patterns between people affect feelings and behavior.

Background and approach

She uses client-centered techniques to follow what matters most to each person, and she incorporates emotionally focused ideas when attachment and intimacy are central issues. Dr. Veldorale-Griffin has 17 years of clinical experience.

She commonly helps people dealing with anxiety, depression, bipolar challenges, grief, trauma, eating or anger issues, and struggles around sexuality or gender dysphoria.

Online support

How relational approaches translate to online therapy

Systemic therapy looks at how patterns between people shape problems and strengths, so sessions often focus on how interactions and roles influence feelings and behavior. This helps when concerns involve family-of-origin issues, caregiving stress, or communication problems. Client-centered therapy emphasizes the person's own goals and perspective, so sessions start by listening closely and following what matters most to the client rather than imposing a fixed plan.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide whether systemic, client-centered, or emotionally-focused ideas make the most sense for their goals. That decision is based on what the client wants to change, how they prefer to work, and what comes up in early sessions.

Online formats offer practical benefits for relational work. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in fits a busy day. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to share thoughts between sessions, to reflect in writing, or to fit therapy into a work break or childcare window. These options help make consistent work possible while matching communication style and scheduling needs.
