About Amanda
Amanda Perry is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Pennsylvania with 10 years of experience. She has worked as a school counselor and now provides outpatient therapy. Her work includes supporting people facing stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, self-esteem struggles, and motivation issues.
Amanda helps people who have trouble with concentration, memory, and focus related to ADHD. She has worked with both children and adults on these concerns while in school settings and now continues that work in outpatient care. She also addresses issues around grief, trauma and abuse, addictions, and sleep difficulties.
In sessions she encourages honest, direct conversation about thoughts and feelings. Amanda aims for an environment where people can talk without judgment and practice new ways of coping. She uses practical steps to improve focus, manage anxious moments, and build confidence in social situations.
She also supports people dealing with body image, sexual and intimacy concerns, communication problems, and life purpose questions. Work can include problem-solving for career stress, managing anger, or addressing fertility and multicultural concerns. Seasonal Affective Disorder and self-love are additional topics she can work through.
Her background in school counseling shapes a straightforward style that emphasizes skills and tools clients can use between sessions. To begin, Amanda asks about current challenges and goals, then selects approaches that fit the person’s needs and daily life.
Approaches used and how online therapy fits
Evidence-based therapeutic techniques are used to help people manage symptoms and build skills. For example, cognitive strategies look at unhelpful thoughts and teach ways to test and reframe them, which can reduce anxious thinking and improve confidence in social situations. Behavioral techniques focus on graduated exposure and practicing actions step by step, useful for phobias and fears around social interaction.Therapists often combine these approaches with skill work for focus and organization that supports people with ADHD. That work includes practical routines, concentration strategies, and short behavioral changes aimed at improving day-to-day functioning and memory. These methods are practical and goal oriented rather than purely conversational.
Finding the right mix of techniques is part of the process. Amanda will collaborate with each person to choose which approaches fit their goals, needs, and preferences. Sessions include checking what works, adjusting techniques, and setting small practice tasks between meetings so progress connects to everyday life.
The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online care can make it easier to fit sessions around work, reduce travel time, or allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Discuss format preferences when you schedule so sessions match practical needs and daily routines.
