About Amanda
Amanda Lovin is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Georgia who uses practical, evidence-informed approaches to help people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and addiction. She brings nine years of clinical experience to conversations with adults, keeping the work direct and compassionate. She also supports people managing relationship and intimacy concerns, grief, low self-esteem, and ADHD-related struggles.
Amanda focuses on clear tools you can use between sessions. She draws on cognitive behavioral strategies to shift unhelpful thinking and dialectical behavior ideas to teach emotion regulation and distress tolerance.
Background and approach
Attachment-based and client-centered methods guide how she builds a trusting therapeutic relationship and tailors care to each person's needs. Sessions tend to be warm and interactive. Amanda encourages clients to identify their values and small, workable changes that match those values.
She helps people break big problems into manageable steps and practices skills together in session so clients feel more confident using them in daily life. Her background includes trauma and addictions work across many settings over nearly a decade. That experience shapes a steady, nonjudgmental approach when addressing complex histories or substance concerns.
Amanda aims to meet people where they are and move at a pace that feels doable. People who choose her often want practical coping strategies, clearer communication in relationships, and help making sense of emotional patterns. She works with clients to set goals and adjust plans as needs change, and she welcomes conversations about how therapy can fit into each person's life.
How Amanda blends proven approaches online
Amanda uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help people identify patterns of thinking that keep them stuck and to practice alternative responses. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and many everyday problems by focusing on concrete skills and behavioral experiments.She also incorporates dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) skills to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. These techniques are helpful for strong emotions, relationship conflicts, and impulse-related struggles.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Amanda will collaborate with each client to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. She adapts plans over time so skills are practical and relevant to the client’s life.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for in-depth sessions and skill practice, phone can work when bandwidth is limited, live chat supports quick check-ins, and text messaging is helpful for brief updates or ongoing coaching. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into busy schedules while keeping the focus on learning and progress.
