Rebuilding safety, trust, love, and connection…
My Books

People with ADHD die thirteen years younger than neurotypical peers—not from forgetting keys, but from chronic stress, untreated comorbidities, impulsivity-driven accidents, and suicide rates three times the national average. Medical systems ignore biological realities: inflammation, sleep disorders, and cardiovascular disease affecting ADHD bodies differently.
The ADHD Crisis exposes why we're dying younger and shows the way forward. Amanda Houghton reveals the emotional, psychological, and biological factors shortening ADHD lives—but this isn't just an exposé. It's a call to radical self-acceptance, a celebration of ADHD's extraordinary gifts, a guide for loved ones, and a roadmap for institutional change.
The thirteen-year gap is preventable. This book delivers the truth no one's been willing to say—and the tools to reclaim those stolen years.
The Trauma Trap by Amanda M Houghton explores how unresolved trauma quietly shapes our ability to trust ourselves and others. The book delves into the emotional patterns and defense mechanisms that keep people stuck in cycles of fear, doubt, and broken relationships.
Through compassionate insight and practical guidance, Amanda offers tools to recognize trauma responses, rebuild emotional safety, and bridge the “trust divide.” It’s a thoughtful guide for anyone seeking healing, deeper connection, and a renewed sense of inner security.

About the Author
Keynote Speaker | Author | Trauma Therapist | Clinical Social Worker
We are living through a trust epidemic. Trauma has fundamentally ruptured the connections that sustain us—in our relationships, workplaces, families, and communities. When trust and safety, the bedrock of all meaningful connection, are compromised, we find ourselves adrift and disconnected.
Amanda Houghton has dedicated two decades to understanding the driving forces behind human behavior and the devastating impact of broken trust. Through extensive research and clinical practice, she has uncovered how trauma hijacks the subconscious mind, shatters trust, and fractures our most important relationships.
Having experienced firsthand the challenges of broken trust, Amanda developed effective, evidence-based tools to create emotional safety, rebuild connections, and restore trust. Her mission is clear: teaching thought leaders trauma-informed practices to rebuild emotional safety, restore trust and connection, and embrace deep, unwavering love for themselves and others.
As a highly sought-after speaker, author, and clinician, Amanda's forthcoming book, The Trauma TRAP: Healing Amidst a Crisis of Broken Trust, offers groundbreaking insights into human behavior during crisis. Her enlightened approach to healing and reconnection transforms lives through her speaking engagements and private practice work.
Having guided thousands of clients and workshop attendees toward restored trust and meaningful connection, Amanda has become the go-to expert for organizations seeking to rebuild communication and heal fractured communities.
When she's not transforming lives from the stage or in her practice, Amanda can be found exploring beaches with her family and dog, cherishing time with friends, or planning her next adventure.
