About me
I am a clinical social worker licensed in Missouri with over 20 years of experience working as a therapist, providing services focused on relationship issues and couples counseling ranging from communication issues to individual concerns such as depression and anxiety, substance use disorders, post-traumatic stress disorder, relationship concerns, parenting and child issues, career challenges, transition and change, resiliency, stress management, sleep hygiene, and health problems that are creating tension within the relationship.
I have been successful in developing therapeutic relationships with people from a wide range of backgrounds, using culturally competent counseling techniques. I use a variety of evidence-based therapeutic approaches tailored to meet your unique needs, including cognitive behavior therapy, exposure therapies, and motivational interviewing.
It takes courage to seek a happier, healthier relationship and more fulfilled version of yourself. If you are ready to take that first step towards change, I am here to support and empower you.
I look forward to working with you!

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Amanda Frederick. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Regain might be different.
Amanda is probably the best facilitator of communication I've ever met.
She provides correction and positive and negative feedback to both of us and calls us both out when we have a behavior we need to correct.
She also is good at reinforcing positive actions my spouse and I have each taken and she is decidedly sensitive to not letting one spouse or the other feel attacked or "two against one" and purposefully chooses an inviting educational approach at all times.
I just can't say enough positive about Amanda, her work and life experiences and wisdom are quite evident in every session and I couldn't ask for a better match to help my husband and me learn to understand each other better.
Good
Very patient understanding and compassionate. We have grown on a personal level and together. I'm blessed to have her on our team.
She is wonderful and genuinely cares.
Amanda was a joy to work with and saved my relationship with my partner. She is non-judgmental, quick to respond, and an effective therapist whom I would highly recommend.
I am loving therapy with her so far!
Amanda has been exceptional in our couples counseling. She literally saved our marriage.
She seemed to know what we needed after just our first visit
Amanda is great.
First time going through therapy and I wasn't sure what to expect but Amanda has been so far very friendly and easy to open up about very hard personal topics. I am getting a lot out of each session and I plan on continuing with her for the foreseeable future.
