About Amanda
Amanda Lee is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) licensed in Georgia with eight years of clinical experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, addictions, depression, grief, trauma and related concerns using approaches she lists as Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing.
Amanda began her clinical path after working as a law enforcement officer. That experience led her to focus on mental health and addictions instead of punitive responses. She has worked in mental health and addiction services since 2015 and brings that background into session planning.
Her style centers on listening to what is happening now and finding practical ways to respond. She uses talk-based and skill-focused methods to address mood, coping with life changes, and substance-related problems. She also works with issues such as ADHD, intimacy concerns, parenting stress, anger, and self-esteem.
Amanda notes additional focus areas that include attachment and abandonment issues, communication problems, blended family adjustments, dissociation, domestic violence, and first responder issues. She indicates support for LGBT people and has experience with co-morbidity and complex presentations such as bipolar disorder.
Sessions are organized around the client’s current priorities and goals. She describes a collaborative approach that tests out specific strategies, builds practical skills, and uses mindfulness to reduce reactivity. Prospective clients should confirm session options and scheduling details before booking.

How Amanda’s approaches work in online sessions
Amanda uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and mood regulation and focuses on clear strategies you can practice between sessions.She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to teach practical emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and communication techniques. DBT-style skills training can help with strong reactions, impulse control, and relationship stresses.
Finding the right approach happens together. The therapist will review concerns, goals, and preferences and suggest which methods to try first. Sessions can adapt as progress is made and new priorities arise.
Confirm the current session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a workday, allow shorter check-in meetings when needed, and reduce travel time. Licensed professionals often use these benefits to help clients practice skills in the settings where challenges occur.
