About Amanda
Amanda Lovin is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Georgia. She brings nine years of clinical experience helping people navigate stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and relationship struggles. Her work also addresses trauma, addictions, intimacy concerns, and challenges like low self-esteem or life transitions.
Amanda favors a narrative-informed approach that helps people reframe their stories and notice patterns that no longer serve them. She combines that with practical methods from cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy to build skills for daily life.
Background and approach
Sessions are conversational and focused on real steps clients can try between meetings. Her style is warm and interactive. She treats conversations as a collaborative effort and helps people identify their values and small, achievable goals.
Amanda aims to balance emotional understanding with clear strategies for coping and change. She has experience supporting people with addiction, codependency, dissociation, and compassion fatigue, and she offers attention to issues like abandonment, commitment concerns, and first responder or veteran-related stress. Amanda also helps with forgiveness, guilt, and finding life purpose when people feel stuck.

Online session options
How Amanda’s approaches translate to online therapy
Amanda uses narrative therapy to help people tell and rework the stories that shape their feelings and choices. This approach helps identify repeating patterns like codependency or abandonment themes and creates space to experiment with new ways of relating.She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on clarifying personal values and taking action even when difficult feelings are present. ACT is useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes because it emphasizes small, consistent steps tied to what matters most.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Amanda will talk with clients about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, then adapt techniques from narrative, ACT, or cognitive behavioral methods as needed. This keeps the process collaborative and practical.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video works well for deeper conversations and visual cues, while phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text messaging can support shorter check-ins or ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and different schedules.
