Amanda Kohl
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MA, LMHC, CTP
As a queer, LGBTQIA+ affirming therapist, I understand how identity, relationships, and past experiences can intersect in complex ways. You may be navigating questions around identity, healing from rejection or religious trauma, or trying to feel more at home in yourself. I offer a space where you can process, explore, and move toward a deeper sense of safety, self-acceptance, and connection.
