Kids do not come with manuals. Even more so, kids who have addictions or other heavy needs make it even more difficult and confusing to know what to do and where to turn for help. With experience with Emotionally Disturbed Youth, managing group homes, and working for the county mental health I have deep experience in helping parents to find their way. I will help you see where you may have missed some of the basics of behavioral management, where you may be communicating mixed or unintentional messages and how to guide your child (or adult child) to a better place.

Amanda Martell
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I always have felt that you cannot understand what being a mom is like unless you are a mom yourself. On top of being a mother and working with children and families for the past decade, I spent a couple years as a family therapist and was certified as a Multi-Dimensional Family Therapist. I draw from that and solution focused approaches to support in the struggle of being a parent.

Parenting can bring up our deepest love as well as our deepest triggers. Many parents find themselves reacting in ways they don’t understand or repeating patterns from their own upbringing. Therapy can help you parent more intentionally, understand your own emotional responses, and build a relationship with your child that feels more connected and less reactive.

Amherst is a suburban town of Buffalo and home to the North Campus of the University at Buffalo, one of the largest universities in the State University of New York system, bringing a substantial student population and the mental health demands that come with a large public research university. The town's generally affluent suburban character contrasts with the significant challenges faced by neighboring Buffalo, and many residents access mental health services in the broader Buffalo metro area alongside local providers. UB's counseling services are a primary resource for students, and a private therapy sector serves Amherst's established families and professional residents. Common therapy concerns include student mental health, academic and identity development stress at a large research university, anxiety, family and relationship issues, and the transitional challenges of navigating life in a prosperous suburb adjacent to a struggling urban center.
