Our Areas of Specialty Include:

As a native of the Chicagoland area, Dr. Amanda Long- Pack, Ph.D., envisioned TRUE Space as a safe, affirming practice where women of color could access quality, evidence-based therapeutic care. With over a decade of experience in the mental health field, she has dedicated her career to supporting adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, race- and gender-related stress, burnout, grief, and relationship challenges.

Dr. Amanda is also the founder of Black Women in Color, a community-based wellness organization that creates spaces for Black women to connect, heal, and thrive. Together, TRUE Space and Black Women in Color reflect her commitment to dismantling stigma, providing culturally responsive care, and empowering women to embrace their whole selves.

Her therapeutic approach is holistic and collaborative, rooted in the belief that clients already hold the strengths needed to heal — therapy simply helps uncover and activate them.
