01About Amanda
Amanda Lee is a licensed professional counselor with eight years of experience in mental health and addictions work. She began her path after serving as a law enforcement officer and shifted into counseling when she saw people needed treatment rather than punishment.
Amanda brings a calm, direct style to sessions and aims to help people move past depression, anxiety, trauma, and substance problems. She focuses on practical steps that make daily life feel more manageable.
Background and approach
Sessions often look at thought patterns, coping tools, and small behavior changes. Mindfulness and skills from Dialectical Behavior Therapy are used alongside client-centered conversations to match what each person needs. Amanda helps with grief, self-esteem, relationship struggles, and the stresses that come with career and caregiving roles.
She also addresses attachment and abandonment concerns, co-occurring conditions, and first responder issues. Additional areas include ADHD, bipolar concerns, and issues related to domestic violence or substance use. Her approach is collaborative and respectful.
She invites people to set the pace and work toward realistic goals. Motivational interviewing techniques are used when someone wants to change habits like drug or alcohol use. Amanda practices in Georgia and offers sessions in English.
She describes her work as nonjudgmental and explicitly supportive of LGBT people. People can expect straightforward talk, practical skills, and a focus on what helps them function better day to day.

04Online support
Therapeutic approaches for online care
Amanda uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in online sessions. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce anxiety, depression, and stress. DBT teaches emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills that can help with strong emotional reactions, self-harm urges, and relationship difficulties.She also draws on client-centered therapy, which centers conversations on the person's priorities and strengths. Choosing an approach is collaborative - the therapist and client discuss goals, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what helps most. This gives people a say in how therapy proceeds and allows methods to be blended as needed.
Online formats available include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat supports shorter check-ins, and messaging provides ongoing written contact between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or other routines while keeping the focus on practical skills and progress.
