Amanda Evans Powell

Amanda Evans Powell is a licensed clinical social worker with 16 years of professional experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, and major life changes. She also supports people struggling with concentration and focus related to ADHD and common concerns around body image and grief.

Her approach starts by listening to each person's story and strengths. Amanda uses clear, practical techniques rather than jargon. She focuses on small, doable steps that build confidence and better daily coping.

In sessions she blends client-centered work with cognitive behavioral ideas and mindfulness practices. That means she will listen closely, help identify unhelpful thinking patterns, and teach simple awareness and breathing exercises. The goal is more effective problem solving and less reactivity in stressful moments.

Amanda draws on a wide range of settings from her years of practice. She aims to make sessions feel straightforward and useful from the first meeting. People often leave with specific tools they can try between appointments.

She is based in Maine and holds an LCSW, which stands for Licensed Clinical Social Worker. If someone wants to explore changes in mood, relationships, parenting, or career direction, she focuses on practical supports to move forward.
