Amanda Lee, LPC

Amanda Lee is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who brings eight years of clinical experience to her practice in Georgia. She focuses on common and complex concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, grief, and relationship-related struggles. Amanda writes in a straightforward way and aims to help people move past painful experiences toward a more satisfying life.

Her path to counseling began during a career in law enforcement. That background shaped her interest in addressing mental health and substance use needs rather than defaulting to punishment. Since 2015 she has worked in mental health and addiction settings and has kept that practical, outcomes-focused perspective.

Amanda uses a mix of approaches to match a person’s needs. She draws on Client-Centered Therapy to keep the room focused on the individual, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills for emotional regulation. She also uses mindfulness and motivational strategies when those fit.

Sessions tend to center on current problems and concrete steps. Conversations include exploring what matters to the client, setting small goals, and practicing new skills between meetings. Amanda identifies as an ally to the LGBTQIA+ community and describes her practice as judgement free.

People interested in working together are asked to use the continue button on this profile, fill out a short matching questionnaire, and schedule based on the therapist’s availability. Amanda notes that not all calendar openings are listed, so prospective clients should discuss dates and times before booking.

How Amanda’s Approaches Shape Online Work

Amanda uses Client-Centered Therapy to keep sessions focused on the client’s priorities. That means conversations center on what the person brings to the session and the counselor follows their lead to clarify goals and values.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to spot patterns of thinking and behavior that make problems worse. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and many day-to-day struggles because it breaks issues into clear steps and practiceable skills.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills are part of her toolbox for managing strong emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness. These skills can help with emotional ups and downs, anger, and relationship tension.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Amanda will work with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Early sessions typically involve checking what matters most and trying one or two approaches to see what helps.

The therapist’s profile does not list specific online session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. They can also support regular skill practice between meetings, so therapy becomes part of everyday life rather than an occasional event.
