About Amanda
Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) in Michigan with 30 years of professional experience, Amanda Eidemiller focuses on stress, anxiety, grief, self-esteem, coping with life changes, and compassion fatigue. She works using Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT). Amanda meets people who are dealing with difficult transitions and intense emotions and helps them develop skills to manage those challenges.
Amanda bases sessions on straightforward conversation and practical strategies. She uses CBT to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and DBT skills for emotional regulation and distress tolerance. EFT techniques are used when attachment and relationship patterns are part of the concern. Sessions focus on building clearer self-understanding and small, achievable changes.
Over three decades of work have included helping people navigate grief and caregiver stress. Amanda also supports those managing chronic pain, illness, or disability by addressing emotional impacts and coping strategies. She addresses guilt, shame, forgiveness, and questions about life purpose with direct discussion and focused tools.
Her approach centers on listening, reflecting, and adapting the conversation to the person in front of her. Practical homework and skill practice are used when helpful. Amanda aims to make sessions a place to try new ways of coping and to rehearse different responses to stressors.
People who choose her often want clear techniques and steady support while they work through change. Before booking, confirm current session options and formats. The work typically combines emotion-focused talk with skill-based practice.

How Amanda’s approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy centers on listening and reflecting to help the client clarify concerns and goals. Online sessions using this approach often focus on open conversation, building trust, and identifying what the client wants to change.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets unhelpful thoughts and behaviors with specific exercises. In remote work CBT usually involves tracking thoughts, trying new behaviors between sessions, and reviewing results together. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills. Online DBT work often includes teaching and practicing concrete skills for managing intense emotions and stress.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose which methods to emphasize based on needs, goals, and preferences. That means sessions can shift between emotion-focused conversation and skill-based practice as needed.
The original biography does not list which session formats are offered. Confirm current session options before booking so you know whether video, phone, or other formats are available. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, medical appointments, or busy days by removing travel time and allowing shorter check-ins when appropriate.
