About Amanda
Amanda Alleman is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with 13 years of professional experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, parenting challenges, grief, addiction concerns, and sleep problems. She offers a calm, down-to-earth presence for people who feel unsure about starting therapy.
Amanda sees clients as the experts on their lives. She focuses on strengths and practical steps rather than long lectures. Sessions aim to be straightforward and focused on what the client wants to change or understand.
Her approach adapts to the person in front of her. She uses talking, goal-setting, and exercises that can be tried between sessions. Expect clear feedback, help building new habits, and ideas you can use right away.
Amanda works with a wide range of life concerns, including trauma and abuse, intimacy-related struggles, career stress, and compassion fatigue. She also addresses more specific areas like attachment issues, blended family challenges, body image, and substance use concerns.
She recognizes that starting therapy can feel hard. Amanda aims to make the first steps easier by listening carefully and helping people set realistic, manageable goals. The focus is on practical progress and a supportive working relationship.
Approaches that guide online support
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person's experience. It helps people feel heard and shapes work around their goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors affect feelings. It uses simple exercises and new routines to change unhelpful patterns and can be useful for anxiety, sleep problems, and mood challenges.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Amanda will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit best for their goals, values, and day-to-day life. That plan can change as needs evolve and progress is made.
Confirm which session options are offered before booking, since formats are not listed here. Online work can make therapy easier to fit into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. It can also let people try techniques at home between sessions and bring practical life issues directly into conversation, which many clients find helpful.
