About Amanda
Amanda Alleman is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with 13 years of professional work experience. She has been practicing as an LPC since 2020 and focuses on common concerns such as stress, anxiety, relationships, family conflict, and parenting challenges. Amanda keeps language straightforward so people can quickly know what to expect from early conversations.
She helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and patterns and tries concrete ways to respond differently. Her work draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside client-centered listening and brief, solution-focused steps. Amanda also uses motivational interviewing to support change when substance use or other habits are involved.
Sessions are practical and goal-oriented. She prioritizes small experiments between meetings, clear strategies for day-to-day problems, and checking what is or is not working. Conversations focus on skills people can use right away, like sleep routines, anger management techniques, or ways to improve communication in close relationships.
Amanda has experience across many concerns including grief, trauma and abuse, addictions, bipolar mood issues, and caregiver stress. She also addresses attachment-related problems, body image, adoption and foster care matters, and blended family challenges. Her approach balances direct tools from CBT with listening that centers each person’s perspective.
People who want straightforward, structured help with specific problems will find sessions that emphasize practical steps. Before booking, confirm session options and scheduling details to make sure they fit your routine.
How Amanda Uses Practical Approaches in Online Sessions
Amanda commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. CBT sessions focus on clear steps, short experiments between meetings, and skills for sleep, anger, or anxiety management.She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes listening to each person's experience and building on their strengths. Motivational Interviewing appears when change involves breaking habits or addressing substance use; it helps people weigh options and find personal reasons to act.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Amanda treats the choice of methods as collaborative and checks in about what fits a person’s goals and preferences. She adapts tools and pacing based on feedback and progress rather than sticking to a single plan.
Confirm current session options before booking to know which formats are offered. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Some formats require less bandwidth or camera use, which can help when a quick conversation or a flexible appointment is needed.
