My name is Amanda Burback, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and the founder of Mellow Therapy, a boutique practice in Marina del Rey, California. At Mellow, I work with high-functioning, modern professionals navigating anxiety, depression, addiction, relationship challenges, and the effects of trauma. I offer both in-person and online sessions, helping clients address patterns that keep them feeling stuck, strengthen self-understanding, and create lasting change.

In my practice, I use Attachment-Focused EMDR and integrate Internal Family Systems (IFS) to help clients safely access and reprocess painful memories, connect with parts of themselves that have been pushed aside, and create space for new ways of being. My approach is warm, collaborative, and trauma-informed, with a focus on nervous system regulation, self-trust, and lasting emotional resilience.

I believe growth comes from being challenged with care, not coddled. My goal is to create a space where you feel seen, supported, and empowered to do the deeper work — so life feels more grounded, connected, and your own.
