Approaches Amanda Uses for Online Therapy

Amanda draws on client-centered therapy to place each person’s goals and perspective at the center of care. This approach emphasizes listening, empathy, and building on existing strengths so clients can explore identity, self-esteem, relationships, and responses to stress at their own pace.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which helps people identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and practical coping skills related to addiction or life transitions. When emotion regulation and patterns of impulsivity or intense mood swings are concerns, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) techniques offer skills in distress tolerance, emotional balance, and interpersonal effectiveness.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Amanda works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors treatment plans and adjusts strategies as progress unfolds.

Online therapy with Amanda can be delivered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, attend sessions from home or work, and access licensed professionals when in-person visits are not feasible.
