Amanda Liñan, LCSW
I am passionate about what I do because I believe every person deserves the opportunity to not just live, but thrive. Every individual has strengths that they can build upon and bring to the relationships with those around them. I believe in therapy as an active process of growth, challenge, and change.
Couples therapy is the core of what I do. I have worked with kids with trauma, behavioral, and mental health issues. I realized that real change comes from the family dynamic, and ultimately from the parenting. It was then that I pursued education to help me work with couples to see real, lasting change.

The Gottman Method really resonates with me because it is based in research and is about gaining a deep, emotional understanding of yourself and your partner. It also focuses on learning tools and skills that will help in very tangible ways. Relationship work is truly magical in my eyes because it is about helping two, flawed individuals come together to make a totally unique and beautiful relationship. I feel so privileged to guide couples on that journey.
One of my major strengths is that I have had opportunities to work with a variety of different issues and populations, including relationships, sexual issues, substance use, mental health, and medical conditions.
I endeavour to bring all of that experience into the therapy room as needed so my clients can really achieve an overall sense of well-being. My experience combined with my education gives me a unique perspective that really helps clients feel heard and valued for who they are.
I was born and raised in Colorado Springs, and I love it here. I have a husband and two children that really rejuvenate me. We like going on adventures, being active, and playing games together with family and friends.
