About Amanda

Amanda Rice is a licensed professional counselor in Michigan who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, trauma, depression, and related life challenges.

Background and approach

She brings a decade of clinical experience to sessions and works with clients facing issues such as relationship and family problems, parenting concerns, grief, bipolar and mood disorders, panic, and difficulties with self-esteem and motivation. Her practice also addresses attachment and personality concerns, communication and control issues, and consequences of disaster or violence.

Her approach blends collaborative, client-centered care with evidence-informed methods including cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical skills, solution-focused strategies, and trauma-focused interventions. Amanda emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion while tailoring conversations and plans to each person’s unique needs.

She views the decision to seek help as an act of courage and frames therapy as a partnership that supports growth, resilience, and clearer goals. Sessions are offered through multiple online formats to fit varied schedules, and Amanda assists clients in identifying practical steps toward more fulfilling work, relationships, and daily functioning.

She maintains professional standards as an LPC and practices throughout Michigan.

Therapeutic approaches and online care



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors that contribute to anxiety, depression, panic, and mood challenges. It often involves practical exercises and step-by-step strategies to build coping skills and improve daily functioning. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and a nonjudgmental stance so clients can explore values, self-esteem, and relationship concerns at their own pace. This approach supports self-directed growth and clearer personal goals.

Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. Amanda works with clients to evaluate which combination of techniques best matches their presenting concerns, goals, and comfort level, and she adjusts the plan as needs evolve. The aim is to partner with each person to build skills, increase insight, and move toward meaningful change.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into busy lives or to continue care when travel or schedules change. These options allow licensed professionals to deliver consistent, accessible support and practical interventions across a range of formats.
