About Amanda

Amanda Mason is a licensed clinical social worker practicing in Georgia with 17 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and life transitions. She holds LCSW and CSW credentials and draws on a range of evidence-informed approaches to tailor care to each person’s needs.

Background and approach

Amanda offers practical strategies alongside supportive exploration to help clients find clearer coping paths and regain a sense of control. Her work addresses a broad spectrum of concerns including compassion fatigue, addictions, relationship and intimacy-related issues, eating and parenting challenges, career and self-esteem struggles, bipolar mood concerns, and coaching for life changes.

Amanda also focuses on aging and geriatric issues, cancer-related emotional needs, caregiver stress, divorce and separation, hospice and end-of-life counseling, post-traumatic stress, seasonal affective disorder, sexual assault and abuse, and young adult concerns. She blends goal-oriented techniques with narrative exploration so clients can both solve pressing problems and make meaning of difficult experiences.

Therapy with Amanda emphasizes collaboration and practical tools. She helps clients identify values and actionable steps while acknowledging the personal story behind symptoms, aiming to support sustainable coping and clearer next steps for daily life.

Approaches for Change in an Online Setting

Many clients benefit from strategies that target thoughts and behaviors, and Amanda uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help identify unhelpful thinking patterns and build practical skills for managing anxiety, depression, and stress. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is another approach she uses to explore values, increase psychological flexibility, and support action toward meaningful life goals even when difficult emotions are present.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. Amanda works together with each person to determine which methods fit their goals and preferences, adjusting plans as needs evolve so therapy stays relevant and useful over time.

Online sessions are offered through multiple formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to maximize flexibility. These options make it easier to attend regular sessions around work, caregiving, or other life demands while maintaining continuity of care. Licensed professionals can use these formats to deliver structured therapies, teach coping skills, and support clients in applying techniques between sessions.
