Amanda Martin, LPCC

Amanda Martin is a licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) practicing in Ohio. She centers her work on making therapy a place to breathe, be honest, and stop pretending everything is okay. Amanda aims to offer both warmth and clear guidance so clients can move forward without judgment.

She focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, low self-esteem, depression, and coping with life changes including midlife crisis. Amanda pays close attention to patterns that keep people stuck, such as attachment-related responses and feelings of emptiness or isolation. She also supports people facing mood and personality concerns and postpartum depression.

Her approach blends compassion with straightforward feedback. Amanda helps people notice why they respond the way they do, practice new ways of relating, and set firmer personal boundaries. She believes small, steady changes add up and that healing often means learning to trust yourself again.

Over a decade of clinical work has informed Amanda’s practical style. She emphasizes collaboration and respects that each person knows their life best. Sessions focus on making sense of current struggles, building tools to cope, and working toward goals at a pace that feels manageable.

If someone has been carrying a lot alone, Amanda aims to walk alongside them and support step-by-step change. Prospective clients are encouraged to review session options and scheduling details before booking.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Amanda uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on understanding emotional patterns and building practical skills. One common approach she uses helps people notice how past relationships influence present reactions and then practice new ways of relating; this can help with attachment issues, low self-esteem, and relationship stress. Another approach centers on coping skills for anxiety, depression, and cravings, teaching breathing strategies, behavioral experiments, and step-by-step plans to manage urges and mood shifts.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Amanda treats therapy as a collaboration where the client’s goals and preferences guide which techniques are used. She will talk through options, try methods, and adjust the plan based on what helps most over time.
