About Amanda

Amanda Mason is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Georgia with 17 years of experience. She works with people who are facing anxiety, depression, grief, stress, and major life changes. She also addresses issues around trauma, relationships, parenting, caregiving, and sexual assault and abuse.

Clients can expect straightforward, practical help for everyday problems. Amanda uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and to try different responses. She also draws on Narrative Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy to help people reframe experiences and focus on concrete steps forward.

Her work often centers on coping skills for busy lives. That can mean short, focused plans for managing intense feelings. It can also mean building routines that ease seasonal mood shifts or support someone through illness or end-of-life caregiving.

Amanda supports people dealing with relationship and intimacy concerns, career stress, addiction challenges, and self-esteem struggles. She offers practical tools for parenting stress, anger, and the emotional impact of divorce or separation.

When trauma or sexual assault is part of the story, sessions emphasize safety, pacing, and skills for handling flashbacks or distressing memories. For those facing aging, cancer, or hospice-related concerns, Amanda helps people clarify goals and manage difficult choices.

Her style is direct and problem-focused. Sessions tend to focus on concrete strategies, short-term goals, and reviewing what worked between meetings. To start, clients fill out a brief matching questionnaire and schedule an initial appointment.

How CBT and ACT inform online sessions

Amanda commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and shift unhelpful thoughts and habits. CBT breaks problems into manageable pieces and gives concrete exercises to try between sessions; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems.

She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on clarifying values and taking actions that matter despite uncomfortable feelings. ACT can be useful for coping with grief, chronic caregiving stress, or ongoing health challenges.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Amanda will discuss goals, preferences, and what has helped in the past, then recommend methods to try. The plan can be adjusted based on what feels most useful during early sessions.

Session formats were not specified in the biography, so confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow a shorter check-in when time is limited. They can also help people continue care while managing illness, seasonal shifts, or caregiving duties.
