She works with people facing stress, anxiety, parenting concerns, depression, coaching needs, and ADHD-related challenges.

Sessions focus on clear goals, skill-building, and practicing new ways of responding to stress. Clients can expect direct, concrete tools alongside space to talk about what feels hard.
Amanda emphasizes understanding how relationships and early experiences shape current patterns. That perspective guides work on communication problems, family of origin issues, codependency, and attachment concerns. She also addresses caregiver stress, issues around body image, and the emotional effects of chronic illness and pain.
Therapy can include coaching-style support for work-related stress, concentration, and memory concerns. Amanda draws on motivational interviewing and practical planning to help people set and reach goals. She also offers help for feelings of isolation, guilt or shame, impulsivity, and managing strong emotions.
Sessions are conducted in English and reflect seven years of practice across Utah and Nebraska licensing. To begin, prospective clients are asked to follow the service's intake steps so scheduling and session logistics can be arranged.
How Amanda uses therapy approaches in online sessions
Amanda commonly draws on cognitive behavioral therapy and attachment-based work in her clinical practice. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying thought and behavior patterns that increase anxiety and teaching practical strategies to shift them. Attachment-based work looks at how past relationships influence current responses and helps people try different ways of relating.She also uses dialectical behavior therapy skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance, offering concrete practices people can use between sessions. Each approach is presented in simple steps so clients can try techniques in daily life and bring observations back to therapy.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Amanda will talk with clients about their goals and preferences and adjust methods based on what is most helpful. The plan may combine skill practice, relational exploration, and coaching-style goal setting as needed.
