About Amanda
Amanda Alleman is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with 13 years of work experience and licensure as an LPC since 2020. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, parenting challenges, grief, addiction, anger, and related concerns. Amanda frames clients as the experts on their own stories and draws on their strengths when addressing difficulties.
Her approach is grounded in straightforward conversation and practical tools. Sessions focus on identifying what’s most pressing, naming patterns that keep problems going, and trying small changes to see what helps. She uses techniques drawn from client-centered work, cognitive behavioral strategies, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused techniques to guide those steps.
Amanda works in a manner that stresses collaboration. She listens, reflects what she hears, and offers ideas clients can test between sessions. That can include short behavior experiments, shifts in thinking, or clear goal-setting to reduce conflict and build on successes.
She often helps people manage anger by looking at triggers and finding simpler ways to respond in the moment. For relationship or parenting stress she will help clarify boundaries and communication patterns that fuel resentment or repeated arguments.
Sessions are practical and down-to-earth, aimed at breaking problems into manageable parts. People leave with clear next steps they can try in daily life, and the therapist and client check progress together.
How her approaches translate to online work
Amanda draws on client-centered methods and cognitive behavioral therapy in her practice. Client-centered work focuses on listening and reflecting so clients can name their own goals and decisions. Cognitive behavioral therapy uses clear steps to notice unhelpful thinking and test different behaviors to reduce symptoms like anger or anxiety.She also uses motivational interviewing and solution-focused techniques to help people find what matters to them and set short, achievable goals. Motivational interviewing helps when someone feels stuck or unsure about change. Solution-focused techniques keep sessions grounded in practical next steps rather than lengthy problem lists.
Finding the right mix of methods is collaborative. Amanda works with clients to identify what fits their goals, preferences, and daily life. Together they try approaches and check what works, adjusting plans if needed.
