About Amanda
Amanda Dunn is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado with eight years of experience in mental health. She works with people facing anxiety, stress, depression, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, relationship concerns, and anger. Amanda also supports those navigating identity topics such as gender dysphoria and LGBT issues. Sessions are carried out in English and she practices from a client-focused standpoint.
Amanda’s approach is straightforward and practical. She leans on Client-Centered Therapy to follow a person’s lead, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot and change unhelpful thought patterns, and EMDR when trauma processing is helpful. She uses Mindfulness techniques to help with anxiety, sleep, and emotional regulation. She also incorporates Gottman Method ideas for relationship communication when appropriate.
In sessions Amanda talks through what is happening now and what you want to change next. She helps people notice patterns, try small experiments, and practice new skills between meetings. For anger that shows up at work or at home she focuses on concrete strategies for cooling down, setting boundaries, and rebuilding conversations.
Her background includes outpatient clinical work and supporting parents, young adults, and people processing past trauma. Amanda emphasizes collaboration - she works with each person to choose approaches that fit their goals. The subscription-based scheduling system is used for session payments and can be canceled at any time.
To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. International clients are not accepted. If you want to check current session options please confirm them before booking.
How Amanda’s approaches translate to online sessions
Amanda uses Client-Centered Therapy to follow what matters most to the person in the room. That means sessions start by asking about your priorities and building from there. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting thought and behavior patterns and practicing changes between sessions to reduce anxiety and irritability. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) can be used when processing past traumatic events feels necessary; it aims to reduce the emotional charge of those memories.Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Amanda will discuss what feels most useful, try different techniques when needed, and adjust based on your goals and comfort. She helps people weigh options and agrees on a plan together rather than following a fixed protocol.
Confirm current session formats before booking to know what is offered. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, and reduce travel time. Different formats also let people choose fewer or no video elements if that helps with bandwidth or focus. A licensed professional will help match the format and approach to your needs so sessions fit into everyday life.
