I'm so excited to share that I was nominated for the best Nonfiction Writer through the Austin Chronicle and I am a FINALIST.

BUT I NEED YOUR SUPPORT THROUGH YOUR VOTE. They will ask a little information to verify only one vote per person. You DO NOT need to live in Austin to vote.

I would be so grateful and honored if you would help me win! Ashton and I are on a mission to get my book out to more people, and this would help so much!

Help us choose the best people, places, and things in the ATX

Coming Soon: Networking and Professional Development Day for Austin Psychotherapists and Wellness Practitioners
Friday, April 5th, 2024

Do you know the number one key to expanding your business?
➡️ It’s building relationships. When you make personal connections with other service providers who share similar clientele and expertise, you become an actual face to a product or service. Conversely, when you meet others, you know who you can refer to when your own clients are asking for other resources that could help in their healing and growth process.

This is why I have created an event specifically for therapists and wellness professionals. This event has been specially curated for you to:
🔥 Introduce yourself and your services
🔥 Build connections with people who work with similar clientele
🔥 Expand your professional knowledge
🔥 Remind yourself of what makes you unique and a valuable referral

This event is for: Psychotherapists, NP’s and Psychiatrists, Dieticians/Nutritionists, Energy Healers, Holistic Health Practitioners, and Other wellness professionals

You will have the option of attending only the morning session, only the afternoon session, or the full day.

Click the link below to learn more about the event and get placed on the interest list. Once registration is open, you will be the first to receive the registration link. I look forward to meeting you!

Who am I?
My name is Amanda Wallingsford and I am a licensed marriage and family therapist, transformation coach, and published author. I have worked in the social service field for 25 years in a variety of settings. I currently own both a therapy private practice (serving teens and younger adults who have been through complex trauma) and a coaching business where I develop trainings and programs for healers. My mission is to support healers, who know that self-discovery is their most valuable tool, to rise into their full potential and create the life of their dreams.

Can either purchase Half Day Tickets (choosing the session you would like to attend) or Full Day Ticket (to include lunch)

(Who am I? Hello. My name is Amanda Wallingsford, and I have been in the mental health field for 25 years. I started as a mentor, moved to residential counselor, to case manager, to group home administrator, to MFT, to Program Director, to Clinical Supervisor. You name it, I’ve likely done it. Alongside that, I have spent a life-time working on myself, allowing my own life experience to be my biggest teacher of supporting other humans. I have recently added published author to my list. I live for helping people rise into their full potential and achieve their dreams. This current chapter is focused on supporting therapists to thrive.)

Note: This is all at a very affordable investment, getting so much incredible value for what’s included. It is an allowable business expense to report on taxes.

I absolutely cannot wait to support you in this program. I feel so much passion for bridging the gap between personal and professional development for therapists. This group mastemind is jam-packed, as I am going all out, and you can fully anticipate that I will over-deliver!
