Was there a time in your life when you felt like you need something to change to help you get back on track to where you want to be? Have you ever had the feeling of being stuck, anxious or overwhelmed with confusing thoughts and it’s holding you back? Or maybe the kids are acting out and you feel like they need someone to help them cope with these emotional struggles, as the school keeps calling about their behavior every day and you keep missing work. Life can be challenging at times as we all know and things can change in the snap of a finger and sometimes we need that safe space to just be with a professional who can try to help provide insight, assistance and help you to create solutions.

7710 NW 71st Court, #206, Tamarac, FL 33321Hello, I am Amanda Dukhie and I specialize in working with children, adolescents/teens and their families as well as with adult males and females. I believe that therapy should be a safe place for my clients and I try to provide an open and collaborative safe space. I also understand that as individuals, our cultures, family of origin and current environments impact our daily functioning and relationships. I firmly believe in the phrase that “slow and steady wins the race” and “what is one small thing you can do today for yourself to have the goals you desire?” I am happy to work with you and together through the process, you can attain one small step at a time on your journey of self discovery and personal growth to achieve the goals you desire for yourself. I am here to help and walk this journey with you!
