How Amanda’s approaches fit online

Amanda uses client-centered therapy to keep the conversation focused on each person’s needs and goals. That means sessions begin with what matters most to the client and proceed at a comfortable pace. Cognitive behavioral therapy is used to identify unhelpful thoughts and to try small, concrete experiments that can reduce anxiety and low mood.

She also draws on mindfulness practices to teach simple grounding and attention skills. These are brief exercises that can be practiced between sessions to reduce reactivity and improve focus. Deciding which approach to emphasize is a team effort - the therapist and client review goals and try methods that feel most useful together.
