About Amanda

Amanda Alleman is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Pennsylvania. She has 13 years of professional experience and focuses on concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family issues, parenting, addiction, grief, and coping with life changes. She emphasizes that clients know their own stories and brings a supportive, nonjudgmental presence to the work.

She approaches sessions with compassion and practical guidance. Sessions center on the client's goals and strengths. Amanda listens for what matters most and helps people set small, workable steps toward change. She aims to make starting therapy feel manageable rather than overwhelming.

Amanda uses methods that include Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, along with Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused Therapy. Those approaches are used to help people understand patterns, try new behaviors, and stay motivated through difficult changes. She adapts strategies to fit each person's situation and preferences.

People come to Amanda for a wide range of concerns, from anger and sleep problems to career stress and intimacy-related issues. Her additional focus areas include adoption and foster care, attachment concerns, caregiver stress, and substance-related struggles. She treats each concern by breaking it into concrete steps and checking in on progress.

Amanda encourages practical collaboration in sessions. She works with clients to build coping skills, clarify values, and create plans that fit real life. Patients who want to start are invited to take a first step and complete the intake process to match with her.

How Amanda Uses Evidence-Informed Methods Online

Amanda draws on Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to guide online work. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and following the client's priorities to build trust and clarity. It is useful when someone needs space to talk through feelings and make sense of life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and offers practical exercises to try new responses to stress and anxiety.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Amanda will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, and then suggest strategies to try. That decision is collaborative and can change as progress is made or new needs appear.

Practical benefits of online therapy often include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into a busy day. Online work can reduce travel time and make it simpler to follow up after a difficult week. Confirm the specific session options before booking to know how sessions are delivered. The focus remains on applying concrete skills, tracking progress, and making sure therapeutic work fits into everyday life.
