Amanda Hagos, LCSW

Finding a therapist that is the right fit can be hard. I partner with families to support their children and young adults through challenging times.

ScienceWorks Behavioral Healthcare
Psychologist, PhD, HSP, PSYPACT+California
At ScienceWorks Behavioral Healthcare, we specialize in evidence-based therapy and psychological assessment for complex, co-occurring mental health conditions, with a focus on ADHD, autism, OCD, trauma, insomnia, and chronic illness. Our psychologist-led team understands that many clients come to us after years of feeling misunderstood, misdiagnosed, or stuck in treatments that didn’t quite fit.
We take a neuroaffirming, science-informed approach, recognizing that your brain, identity, and lived experience all matter. Rather than applying one-size-fits-all therapy, we work collaboratively to understand your unique “neurotype” and build a personalized plan that supports real, sustainable change.
Our services are designed for individuals whose challenges are often interconnected—because conditions like ADHD, autism, trauma, and OCD rarely occur in isolation. Through comprehensive assessments, specialized therapies (ERP, ACT, CBT, EMDR, CBT-I), and executive function coaching, we help you gain clarity, reduce distress, and build practical skills for everyday life.
ScienceWorks offers secure telehealth services across California and PSYPACT-participating states, making expert care more accessible wherever you are. We also coordinate with prescribers and other providers when needed, creating a more integrated and effective treatment experience.
Our practice was founded by Dr. Kiesa Kelly, a clinical psychologist and former professor, whose work is grounded in both research and lived experience. This perspective shapes our commitment to providing care that is not only evidence-based, but also compassionate, affirming, and deeply human.
If you’re looking for therapy that truly understands complexity—and helps you move toward clarity, confidence, and meaningful change—we’re here to help.

This collaborative model ensures that every client feels known, seen, and supported by The Connection Clinic, receiving the insight and care of a well-rounded team, something that truly sets us apart from other systems of care.

Geared towards achieving greater balance, peace of mind and effectiveness in life. As a creative writer, I am seasoned in working with fellow creatives to support their generativity and self-acceptance. Often, my work is with alt high achievers addressing everyday anxieties as well as broader existential issues.

What makes my practice unique is the presence, depth and care I bring to each session. I will meet you where you are and offer a compassionate space to explore the layers that exist beneath grief, loss, life transitions and trauma. My work is grounded in genuine connection and deep listening and I will offer a reflection of what I am hearing you say.

Heidi Hartston
Psychologist, PhD
I have been a practicing psychotherapist in the San Francisco bay area since 1998. I am very experienced in helping adults navigate OCD, anxiety, job stress, burnout, trauma, addictive behaviors and relationship distress. I combine thoughtful depth work with practical tools for a scientifically informed, skillful, intelligent approach. I use effective tools such as EMDR, exposure and response prevention (E&RP), cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and emotion focused therapy for couples (EFT) to support you through the difficulties you are navigating. Collaborating with an experienced psychologist can be a game changer. It can dramatically reduce suffering, create clarity and build a tool box specifically tailored to help you thrive through any challenge. My professional expertise is enhanced by my personal experience as a working mother, advocate for neurodiverse children, and long term relationship partner of 20+ years.
