About Amanda

Amanda Mills is an Ohio Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) with eight years of clinical experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, and issues that trace back to family of origin. Amanda also addresses coping with life changes, addiction concerns, grief, and intimacy-related problems.

She trained in clinical mental health at John Carroll University and studied psychology at Taylor University. Her work history includes inpatient care, intensive outpatient programs, outpatient group settings, and private practice. That mix gives her experience with short-term crisis work and longer-term therapy.

In sessions she uses practical tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to help people change unhelpful thinking and manage intense emotions. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to clarify values and on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at early relationship patterns. Client-Centered Therapy shapes how she listens and structures conversations.

Amanda often helps clients notice how early family roles and expectations still affect adult choices. She works with people on communication problems, codependency, commitment issues, and caregiving stress. She also supports those dealing with substance use, bipolar mood concerns, and career-related stress.

Her approach tends to be straightforward and skills-focused. Sessions include talking through current problems, learning concrete coping strategies, and practicing new ways of relating. To begin, clients complete a brief match questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online options button.

Approaches Amanda Uses and how they fit online

Amanda draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and managing day-to-day stress by teaching concrete skills and experiments to test new ideas.

She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to help with emotion regulation and distress tolerance. DBT skills are practical tools for handling strong feelings and improving interactions with others.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Amanda will discuss your needs, goals, and preferences and recommend one or a mix of methods. She treats that decision as collaborative and adjusts the plan based on what helps you make progress.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. If you prefer a particular format, confirm the current session options when you complete the matching questionnaire and schedule your first session.
