About Amanda

Amanda Lovin is an LPC who blends cognitive behavioral methods with acceptance and attachment-informed ideas to help people navigate stress, trauma, addiction, and relationship concerns.

Background and approach

With nine years of clinical experience, she draws on approaches such as CBT, DBT, ACT, client-centered work, and attachment-based perspectives to create practical strategies for change while honoring each person's unique story. Her practice focuses on a broad range of concerns including anxiety, depression, grief, intimacy-related issues, ADHD, substance and process addictions, compassion fatigue, and life transitions.

Amanda works with issues that can include abandonment, codependency, control and commitment difficulties, dissociation, guilt and shame, and questions of life purpose, tailoring interventions to the presenting needs and goals. Amanda describes a warm, interactive counseling style that centers the client and emphasizes collaborative skill-building.

She aims to provide tools and supportive guidance so clients can access their own strengths and move toward more satisfying, functional patterns in relationships and daily life.

Practical therapeutic approaches for online care

CBT and ACT are central tools in her work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify unhelpful beliefs and patterns and offers concrete skills to change thoughts and behaviors that contribute to anxiety, depression, and problematic habits. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on values and willingness to accept difficult internal experiences while committing to actions that align with what matters to the client.

Attachment-Based Therapy complements these approaches by exploring how early relationship patterns shape current emotional responses and interpersonal dynamics; this can be especially useful for intimacy-related issues, trust concerns, and relational wounds. Amanda uses these methods collaboratively, working with clients to determine which combination best fits their goals, needs, and preferences rather than prescribing a one-size-fits-all plan.

Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers practical flexibility for people balancing work, caregiving, or geographic constraints. These formats allow licensed professionals to deliver structured skill-building, process emotional material, and support coping between sessions while making it easier to maintain consistency and access during life transitions.
