About Amanda
Amanda Roland, LPC, helps people who are carrying heavy emotional burdens. She supports those facing depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, parenting strain, and relationship or life-change stress. Amanda offers a steady, warm presence so people can tell their stories without judgment.
She centers sessions on the person in front of her and meets them where they are. That means she listens first, then helps clients clarify goals and take small, practical steps toward them. Conversations look at patterns that cause pain and at realistic ways to try something different.
Amanda blends several approaches to fit each person’s needs. She uses client-centered work to create a respectful space, and draws on cognitive behavioral tools to identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She also uses dialectical behavior therapy skills and solution-focused strategies to build coping skills and practical plans.
Her background includes a Master of Science in Counseling and five years as a Licensed Professional Counselor, with broader mental health work going back to 2007. She has experience in crisis stabilization, inpatient and outpatient settings, and work with adoptees, foster children, and adolescents. Amanda also partners with local first responder teams as a co-responder.
In sessions she aims to be collaborative rather than directive. Clients shape the pace and goals, and she provides guidance, tools, and steady support. The focus is on workable changes people can use in daily life.
