Getting to know Amonna Pinkney

I am a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) dedicated to helping teens, adults, and LGBTQ+ individuals adjust to life's many challenges and build strong emotional regulation skills. Through a solutions-focused, client-centered, and strengths-based approach, I help heal the body, mind, and spirit in ways that work best for you. My specialties include mood and anxiety disorders; sexual issues like dysfunction, trauma, and pervasive sexual behavior; trauma and PTSD; and relationship problems, including non-traditional relationships.

What should a new client know about working with you?

DISCLAIMER: not accepting Medicare or Medicaid plans at this time. The Netflix show Sex Education inspired me to start along the path toward therapy, particularly the main character’s mother and the type of work she did with her clients. After finding a dual-program with this specialty, my love for general mental health care grew, especially the ways in which it intersects with many sexual issues that people experience. This love inspires my practice now, where I ensure judgement-free, trauma-informed, strengths-based care with an open mind and down-to-earth vibe.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

I take a collaborative and understanding approach that meets you where you’re at in a fun and down-to-earth environment. Through a mix of treatments like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, I help you build effective tools and break down walls to overcome struggles so you better understand your emotions, your reactions to those emotions, and ways to manage life experiences.
