About Amanda
Amanda Lovin is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Georgia. She brings nine years of clinical experience helping adults manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and addiction. Her manner is warm and interactive, and she focuses on practical steps people can use day to day.
Amanda uses several evidence-informed approaches, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Attachment-Based Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy. She blends these methods to match each person’s needs and goals.
How Amanda works
Sessions focus on skills, awareness, and real-world changes rather than abstract theories. She works with concerns such as relationship and intimacy issues, ADHD, grief, low self-esteem, compassion fatigue, and coping with life changes. Additional focus areas include abandonment, codependency, commitment and control issues, dissociation, and substance and process addictions.
She also supports people facing first responder or veteran and armed forces issues. Amanda frames therapy as a collaborative process. She helps people notice patterns, practice new skills, and try small experiments between sessions.
Progress often comes from concrete changes in behavior and clearer thinking about goals and values. Her practice offers flexible online session formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. International clients may work with her in English.
To begin, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules a session based on availability.

Online support options
Practical approaches you can use online
Amanda commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values. ACT focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and choosing actions that match personal goals.She also works with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which helps people identify unhelpful thought patterns and try behavioral experiments to reduce anxiety or depression. CBT tends to be action-oriented and useful for stress, mood, and many day-to-day problems.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Amanda collaborates with each person to choose which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts techniques over time based on what is helping and what isn’t, so sessions remain practical and goal-focused.
Online therapy with Amanda is available through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversation and exercises that need visual cues. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a busy day. Live chat or text messaging can work for shorter check-ins, homework support, or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options aim to make it simpler to access consistent care around work, family, or travel.
