About Amanda
Amanda Mason is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Georgia with 17 years of experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and anger. Sessions focus on practical skills people can use when life feels overwhelming.
Her approach is straightforward and goal-oriented. She uses methods from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try different responses. Narrative Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy are woven in to help people reframe their stories and identify concrete next steps.
Amanda helps people manage strong feelings that affect close relationships and work. She talks through triggers, communication habits, and everyday routines that keep tensions high. For people coping with loss, illness, caregiving strain, or big life changes, she offers structured support and clear techniques to reduce overwhelm.
She also addresses issues like addictions, intimacy-related concerns, self-esteem, and career stress. Additional focus areas include aging and geriatric issues, cancer-related emotional challenges, hospice and end-of-life counseling, and post-traumatic stress. Her work includes assistance for LGBT clients and people adjusting to separation or divorce.
Amanda pairs skill practice with conversational problem solving. Sessions tend to be practical - identifying one or two changes to try between meetings. People leave with short, doable steps to help them respond differently when anger and frustration rise.
How Amanda uses ACT and CBT in remote sessions
Amanda commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. ACT helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting ruled by them. It focuses on values and taking small actions that matter. CBT looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to shift unhelpful patterns.She also draws on Narrative Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy when useful. Narrative approaches help people see their problems in context and rewrite unhelpful stories. Solution-Focused work narrows down immediate next steps and finds small, manageable changes that produce relief. Finding the right approach is part of the work. Amanda collaborates with clients to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. She checks in regularly and adjusts strategies based on what helps in day-to-day life. Confirm the specific session options before booking because formats are not listed in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work and family life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when days are busy. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited, and video sessions let people use visual cues during conversation. Discuss options when scheduling to pick what fits best.
