Mirlande Amazan
She/Her
Mirlande
is a therapist at Two Chairs.
Mirlande aims to partner with clients in their journey towards self-actualization, healing and discovery; understanding the uniqueness of each individual and customizing treatment accordingly. Her love for supporting clients through some of their greatest challenges and seeing their power in overcoming these challenges is one of her joys.
When Mirlande is not providing therapy, she delves into her creative work ; intermittently taking breaks to play with her large German Shepherd. She finds joy in nature, spiritual/physical exercise and spending time with family.
