In-person at the Gulfport, MS office or telehealth anywhere in Mississippi or Tennessee

I’m Amanda Whichard, and I love to help people get results in their therapy practice. Imagine successfully quieting your racing thoughts, feeling anxious less, or even loosening the hold of past experiences that keep haunting you.

I offer you a relaxing space to take a breath and rediscover your strengths and resilience.

Specialties

  • Woman at the beach with her eyes closed and hand on chest breathing deeply

    Anxiety & Trauma Counseling

    Anxiety often has roots in past experiences that haven’t fully resolved. Using mindful strategies and evidence-based trauma therapy like EMDR, we’ll help your nervous system settle so you can feel grounded, steady, and present again.

  • A set of colorful crayons arranged in a diagonal line on a white background.

    OCD Therapy

    If faith is an important part of your life, your sessions can include prayer and Scripture—always at your pace, always your choice.
