About Amanda

Amanda Gibson is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) in Indiana who aims to help people find more steadiness in daily life. She focuses on practical support for stress, anxiety, depression, mood shifts, addiction concerns, grief, and major life changes. Amanda offers a calm, nonjudgmental space where clients can talk about fears, mistakes, strengths, and small successes.

Amanda brings 12 years of clinical experience to conversations about coping skills and decision-making.

Background and approach

She uses straightforward techniques to reduce overwhelm and to help people notice patterns in thoughts and behavior. Sessions often include tools for emotion regulation, problem solving, and clearer thinking. She combines Client-Centered methods with cognitive and emotion-focused approaches.

This means sessions tend to be collaborative, with the therapist listening closely and guiding gentle shifts in how people respond to stress. Mindfulness and skills from Dialectical Behavior Therapy are also used when helpful to manage intense feelings and impulsivity. Amanda has personal experience with breast cancer and understands the complicated emotions that can follow illness.

She also works with issues that intersect with developmental and neurological differences, caregiving strain, and substance use concerns. Her background includes helping people navigate family problems, parenting strain, and career-related stress. Sessions are offered in English and delivered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging.

Getting started requires completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first appointment according to therapist availability.

Online support

Therapeutic approaches and how they translate online

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) concentrates on emotions and attachment needs; it helps people identify core feelings and shift unhelpful interaction patterns to feel more connected and supported. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a warm, accepting relationship where the therapist listens closely and follows each person's pace to build insight and confidence. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing thought patterns and behaviors that contribute to anxiety, depression, or low mood, and it often includes practical exercises to try between sessions.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they’ll try strategies, revise them as needed, and pick the mix that fits the situation and personality.

Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls let people hold richer conversations and use visual cues. Phone sessions can work well when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to check in between sessions, do short coaching-style checkups, or fit therapy into a busy day. These options make it simpler to maintain continuity of care, be flexible around work or caregiving, and use different formats depending on the moment.
