Amanda Kirk

If you or your relationship is struggling to deal with life’s stressors, communication, achieving a healthy lifestyle, or improving your sense of connectedness, I’d be honored to discuss your needs and how I can help. I love helping individuals improve their lives, and couples & families enjoy healthy, loving relationships – my goal is to help you go from survive to thrive mode! Now offering therapy to both Virginia and Florida residents!

I provide therapy for couples (addressing concerns including relational enhancement, couple distress, communication issues, relationship boundaries, parenting support and guidance) and for individuals (to address such topics as women’s issues, depression, anxiety, life direction and life transitions, increasing coping skills, and overall life improvement).

I also facilitate psycho-educational courses and workshops for couples (individualized or group!), including premarital preparation, marriage enhancement, as well as a unique workshop specifically for couples transitioning to parenthood. The Prepare/Enrich course/workshop is appropriate for couples seeking to prepare for marriage, enrich and strengthen their relationship, or to lay a solid foundation if they are weighing whether to pursue couple’s therapy. Our counseling team also offers an anxiety class for those interested in learning what anxiety really is and the options for eliminating it from your life.

I have a Masters degree in Marriage & Family Therapy and have been working with individuals, couples, and families for over 10 years. In addition to being a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), I also have a provisional license as a Resident in the state of Virginia for Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist (LMFT). I am a certified facilitator of the Prepare/Enrich Program, a Gottman Bringing Baby Home Educator, and a Gottman Seven Principles Couples Leader.

I offer a free 15-minute consultation to answer your questions and determine if we would be a good fit. I am honored to support you as you seek to improve the quality of your life and relationships. Our small counseling team strives to meet your and your family’s specific needs. Let’s get started!
