Amanda Enlow

Pronouns: She/Her

Intern Extraordinaire 

Phone: (360) 515-7793

Email: Amanda@sunflowermentalhealth.com

Hi! I’m Amanda Enlow and I use she/her pronouns. I am a clinical social work intern passionate

about helping people embrace themselves and their bodies. I am pursuing my Master of Social

Work at the University of Washington Tacoma and I’m training to provide mental health therapy

under the supervision of Sazi Wald #LW61407723.

​

I hold a Bachelor in English from Western Washington University, where I developed a deep

appreciation for the power of language and storytelling. My experiences as a childcare provider

instilled in me a strong sense of empathy and patience, allowing me to connect with people

effectively and develop a safe, nonjudgmental space. My longtime work and previous internship

in higher education deepened my appreciation for the challenges of a diverse student body,

allowing me to support students’ academic and personal journeys. In my role as a caregiver, I

learned the importance of compassion, resilience, and advocacy.

​

I help people navigate mental health challenges with compassion while confronting the societal

norms that influence body image, self-worth, and identity. My approach is grounded in social

justice and intersectional feminism, recognizing the interconnected impact of systems of

oppression on women’s and marginalized individuals’ mental health, particularly in the

experiences of anxiety, depression, and body shame. This perspective allows us to challenge

oppressive standards and cultivate a more empowering narrative around self-worth.

I work with adults of all sizes and identities who are struggling with body image, anxiety, or

other life problems. My style is collaborative, open, authentic, and empathetic. I incorporate

different evidence-based techniques and modalities, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, internal family systems, or mindfulness-based approaches.

​

If you’d like to see if we’re a good fit, please reach out for a free 20-minute consultation. I look

forward to hearing from you! https://calendly.com/amanda-sunflowermentalhealth
