About Dr. Amanda Savage Brown:

Dr. Amanda Savage Brown offers so much more than her most recent, very celebrated focus and comes to us with nearly 20 years of experience as a women's psychotherapist.

Recently she's become a torchbearer for women navigating the psychosocial impacts of breast implants. She draws from her life's work in women's health as a scientist and psychotherapist. In 2018, her personal life and professional expertise aligned as she moved through her explant journey and witnessed the mental, emotional, and social challenges among women facing breast implant removal. To address these overlooked needs, she developed Breast Implant Through Explant (BRITE™) Inner Healing–the foundation for Busting Free. Busting Free is the first self-help book for women living with breast implants who are considering, moving through, or recovering from explant. Its readers emerge with an unshakeable self-acceptance practice that they can use for the rest of their life, no matter how their body changes or ages.
