Amanda Koenig-Reed, M.A., LMFT
Hello. My name is Amanda Koenig-Reed.
I’m a Marriage and Family Therapist working and living in the Houston area. I’ve been licensed with the state of Texas since 2007 and have worked with different patient populations in a variety of settings.
I am known for my warmth, pragmatic approach, positive regard and research-based knowledge. I take a holistic approach to therapy and my goal is to help you set and achieve goals, identify and learn to tolerate emotions, and gain new perspectives and insight. My holistic approach values the connection between mind, body and spirit within the context of a safe therapeutic relationship.
My specialties include Anxiety, perfectionism, self-harm, couples counseling, relational problems, women’s issues, Teen and Young Adult Concerns, Sudden Life Changes/ adjustment issues, low self-esteem, and family/peer relationship issues.
I also work with divorce, behavioral disorders, ADHD, Autism, Asperger’s, ODD, parenting, adoption, educational and peer concerns, grief, trauma, as well as the concurrent treatment of depression and anxiety.
Treatment Approach
My approach is direct and compassionate, getting to the heart of the matter quickly. I work to provide you with practical skills that you can use to cope in more effective ways. As a therapist I use evidence-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help you with depression, anxiety, and a variety of life management and adjustment issues.
