Approaches that guide online sessions
Amanda often blends client-centered work with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. Client-centered work means she focuses on listening closely and following the client’s lead, which helps people feel heard and decide goals that matter to them. CBT targets specific thoughts and behaviors by helping people notice unhelpful thinking and try different actions to reduce symptoms like anxiety or depression. DBT offers skills for managing intense emotions, improving distress tolerance, and strengthening relationships with clearer communication.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapy process. Amanda will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together the therapist and client decide which techniques to try and adjust them over time based on what works best.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit daily life and schedules. Video calls are useful for longer sessions and visual connection. Phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging are helpful for shorter check-ins, skill practice, or when someone needs flexible timing. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care and to try different formats as needs change.
