About Amanda

LPCC licensed in Kentucky with 10 years of professional experience, Amanda Durham helps people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, low self-esteem, depression, and big life changes. She also focuses on caregiver stress, guilt and shame, questions about life purpose, self-love, and social anxiety. Sessions are conducted in English. Amanda frames clients as the experts on their own stories and works alongside them to make practical changes.

Amanda uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to build coping skills and improve daily functioning. She emphasizes clear goals and step-by-step strategies rather than vague theory. Conversations look at current patterns, small behavior changes, and ways to handle stress and urges as they come up.

Her approach is collaborative and action-oriented. Amanda helps people identify strengths they already have and then practices new habits in session. She also addresses the emotional weight of guilt, shame, and caregiver burden so those issues interfere less with everyday life.

Over the course of sessions she supports people in increasing confidence and motivation. That can mean setting short-term targets, trying behavioral experiments between meetings, and reviewing what works. Amanda encourages people to notice small improvements and adjust plans when needed.

People interested in starting complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session. Costs vary by location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. International clients are not currently accepted.

Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions work

Two evidence-based techniques Amanda uses are cognitive-behavioral approaches and behavioral skills practice. Cognitive-behavioral approaches look at links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teach concrete ways to change unhelpful thinking and behavior. Behavioral skills practice focuses on doing small, testable tasks between sessions to build confidence and reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood.

She also relies on problem-solving and coping-skill development to manage stress, caregiver burden, and urges related to addictions. These methods break problems into steps and teach practical tools people can use in everyday life.

Figuring out the best approach is collaborative. Amanda works with each person to match techniques to their goals and preferences. She checks in and adjusts plans as progress is made or needs change.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current session options before booking. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule, shorten commute time, and allow for quick check-ins when life feels hectic. It can also let people use modalities that support repeated skill practice between meetings, which is useful for anxiety, mood, and addiction-related goals.
