Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Amanda integrates client-centered therapy with evidence-based tools and mindfulness practices to meet each person where they are. Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathy and collaboration, helping clients explore their values and make choices that reflect their goals; it is often helpful for relationship concerns, parenting challenges, and issues with self-esteem. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, making it useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and coping with life changes. Mindfulness therapy teaches present-moment awareness and grounding techniques to reduce reactivity and support emotion regulation, which can aid in managing trauma responses, anger, and chronic stress.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Amanda works with clients to understand their needs, preferences, and goals, and she adapts techniques over time so the plan fits the person rather than forcing a single method.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can occur by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - allowing clients to access licensed professionals from home, work, or while traveling. This range of options supports scheduling needs, provides different ways to communicate, and makes it easier to maintain continuity of care during life transitions.
