Here to Meet You Where You Are

You may be feeling the weight of past trauma, navigating complex transitions, or stuck in systems that demand you minimize yourself. I provide a dedicated space for deep work if you are navigating:

  • The lasting impact of trauma

  • Intense anxiety, chronic stress, or burnout

  • Persistent low mood, depression, or feelings of isolation

  • Challenges with self-worth and inner criticism

  • Grief and loss

  • Major Life Transitions, such as relationship shifts, job changes, moving, or evolving identity

  • Relational and attachment patterns that may make it difficult to set boundaries or communicate with others

  • The need for a space that is neuroaffirming and inclusive of your entire self

Regardless of the reason you’re seeking counseling today, I know genuine healing requires a space committed to your whole story.

Care Rooted in Justice and Anti-Oppression

Amanda Kenney, LCSW, founded Moonrise Pathways, PLLC to provide a dedicated space for deep healing beyond surface-level solutions, rooted in principles of social justice and anti-oppression. This practice is trauma-informed, anticarceral, and fundamentally supportive of autonomy and self-determination.

I strive to provide culturally responsive care for all people, including LGBTQIA+ individuals, BIPOC/PGM individuals, and neurodiverse folx.

I am dedicated to ongoing learning & unlearning, self-reflection, and accountability. I recognize I will inevitably make mistakes and am committed to actively repairing any rupture.

My practice is built on the belief that you are the ultimate expert in your own life and there’s no one-size-fits-all model.

I collaborate with you to find the unique path that respects your identity and lived experiences. Therapy with me is always rooted in authentic human connection.
