About Amanda
Amanda Fisher is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in North Carolina with ten years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief, and depression. Amanda also addresses issues related to parenting, intimacy, self-esteem, career changes, and compassion fatigue.
She uses practical, evidence-informed approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and trauma-focused methods alongside client-centered and narrative techniques. Sessions focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and habits, building clearer communication, and trying concrete strategies that reduce distress. Amanda describes therapy as a collaborative process and encourages active participation toward measurable goals.
Amanda’s earlier roles included work at residential and community programs supporting adolescents, families, and military-connected clients. Her background involved intake assessments, crisis management, group facilitation, and individual counseling in both faith-based and public settings. She gained experience with grief work, trauma resolution, and some equine-assisted approaches during graduate training.
She has worked in settings where suicide and safety assessments, hospital referrals, and family meetings were part of clinical duties. Those roles shaped her skills in de-escalation, risk screening, and coordinating care when higher levels of support were needed.
Her practice blends structured tools with space to talk through difficult topics. Amanda aims to help people build coping skills, improve relationships, and make steady changes they can use day to day.
How Amanda works with CBT and trauma approaches online
Amanda uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different responses. CBT sessions often include brief skill practice, tracking patterns between meetings, and setting small behavioral experiments to test new ways of coping.She also uses Client-Centered Therapy to offer open listening and to help people organize their thoughts while they decide on next steps. Narrative Therapy is used to separate a person from the problem by looking at the stories they tell about themselves and considering alternative meanings.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Amanda reviews goals and preferences with each person and adjusts methods based on what is working. She encourages people to try concrete strategies and to reflect on progress so the plan can be changed together as needed.
