How Amanda blends proven approaches for online care

Amanda commonly uses client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy in her work. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, understanding your goals, and shaping sessions around what matters to you. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change them.

She also incorporates elements of EMDR, a method some people use when processing traumatic events or post-traumatic stress. EMDR involves guided processing of distressing memories while tracking bilateral stimulation, and some clients find it helpful when trauma is a central concern.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Amanda works collaboratively to figure out which methods fit a person's needs, goals, and comfort level. She combines strategies and adapts the pace so clients can try techniques and give feedback about what helps.
