Amy Vanderpool
My practice is rooted in a process-based, relational, and decolonial framework that centers you as the expert on your own experience. I offer holistic, highly individualized care that attends to all aspects of your life - physical, emotional, social, cultural, environmental, and spiritual - as they impact the concerns bringing you to therapy.
My approach draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Narrative Therapy, Jungian/Psychodynamic, Person-Centered, Mindfulness, Self-Compassion, Polyvagal Theory, and Transpersonal Psychology, while incorporating an integrative framework that includes both top-down cognitive and bottom-up somatic approaches. I operate my practice from a strongly-held Liberation Psychology orientation and lean into less traditional interventions such as dream analysis and projective exploration.
Therapy with me is a collaborative and ongoing conversation: together, we identify the approaches that best support your journey toward whole-person wellness. As we get to know each other, I tailor my services to suit you as an individual, and I actively encourage your feedback to ensure your therapy remains responsive and effective.
The therapeutic relationship is foundational to my work with clients: a co-created, egalitarian space focused on trust, safety, and connection. Rejecting the traditional Western medical model of pathologization, I view your experiences as meaningful adaptations to your neurobiological, psychological, and sociocultural environments. My approach embraces a social model of disability, particularly for neurodivergent clients, and acknowledges the impact of systemic and historical factors such as racism, ableism, capitalism, and colonization.
I specialize in ADHD and AuDHD, particularly late-diagnosed women, and am an ADHD-Certified Clinical Services Provider. As a queer clinician with AuDHD, I am passionate about supporting the LGBTQ+ community. Together, we will explore core beliefs, identity development, and internalized narratives of shame, fostering insight, self-compassion, and empowerment for adults aged 19 and older.
