Background and approach
Amanda focuses on helping people who are anxious, overwhelmed, grieving, or managing big life changes. Amanda works in a warm, client-centered way.
She listens first and then helps people set small, realistic goals. Sessions are conversational but purposeful, with practical tools to use between meetings.
She emphasizes honesty and collaboration while respecting each person's pace. Her approach draws from several methods, including cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness practices.
She also uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing for those processing traumatic memories. Amanda incorporates relationship-focused skills such as the Gottman Method when communication and connection are central concerns.
People come to Amanda for help with stress, depression, panic, sleep troubles, and challenges tied to identity or intimacy. She also supports those navigating parenting stress, compassion fatigue, or recent losses.
Her style blends skills training, emotion work, and concrete problem solving. Amanda aims to make the first steps straightforward.
She offers different session formats to fit varied schedules and needs, and she helps people find the right pace. Her goal is to help each person leave sessions with clearer next steps and tools they can try right away.
How Amanda’s Approaches Work Online
Amanda uses several practical methods to guide online work. The Gottman Method focuses on communication skills, reducing conflict cycles, and rebuilding connection through structured conversations and exercises that can be practiced between sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches tools to test unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that keep problems going.Amanda believes the right approach is found together. She will talk with each person about goals and preferences, try methods that fit, and adjust based on what helps. That collaborative process makes it easier to pick techniques that feel useful and realistic for day-to-day life.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy easier to fit into busy lives. Video lets people work face-to-face when interaction matters, phone calls work with lower bandwidth or when you prefer no video, live chat supports shorter check-ins, and text messaging helps keep momentum between sessions. These options give flexibility for different schedules, energy levels, and communication styles.
