About Amanda Herrera, M.A., LPC-Associate

I empower anxious and burnt-out Women of Color to discover their worth, strength, and resilience.

Being a Mexican-American woman, I relate to the journey of other women of color as they chase their dreams. We hold both spoken and unspoken expectations to care for our family and many other cultural responsibilities. The hectic pace of our lives usually makes us feel alone, drained, and doubtful of our worth and capabilities. While this experience may feel discouraging, it offers us a chance for change.

Life is meant to be more than just ‘getting by’—it’s about flourishing!

You deserve to prioritize your mental health not as a luxury but as a fundamental right.

I have always valued my Mexican-American heritage and how it shapes my worldview and values.
However, I acknowledge the flaws in my culture, including the pressure to support one’s family—often leading women to sacrifice their own desires—and the common misconception about mental health, which includes the belief that seeking therapy is selfish or, even worse, a sign of weakness. It was not until my final year of graduate school that I started exploring the many layers of my identity and began the incredible journey of healing the parts of myself that needed extra care.

As a therapist, I am deeply committed to creating an inclusive therapeutic space for fellow women of color who feel stuck in a never-ending cycle of anxiety, depression, or burnout.
