Amanda Schneider
Amanda Schneider is a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) whose work is shaped by her background in yoga, guided meditation, and crisis counselling. She offers a warm, compassionate, collaborative space where clients can show up as they are, without needing to have the answers or present themselves in a certain way. Amanda’s holistic approach brings the mind and body together, recognizing how experiences can be held physically and how healing can involve mindfulness, self-compassion, and greater awareness of the body’s signals. She supports clients who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure about starting therapy, helping them build resilience, offer themselves more grace, and feel supported as they take the next step.

Booking FAQ
First Session charges each session directly to your credit card. Once each session occurs, and your card is charged, you will receive a PDF receipt to your email with all of the details you will need to get reimbursed (therapist name, license/designation, license number, address, etc). You can then submit the receipt to your insurance company for reimbursement if you have coverage.
We always recommend you check with your insurance provider to confirm what coverage you have.
You are the expert when it comes to knowing who is the right fit. Ensure you’ve watched the therapist video at the top of their profile and see if you get a good feeling from the message and the energy they are putting out. If you feel drawn to speak with them, listen to your gut! Booking a free consultation is a great first step to asses fit.
