Amanda MartinLPCC

Amanda Martin is a licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) who aims to make therapy feel like a place to finally take a breath. She speaks plainly and listens closely so people can speak honestly about what's happening in their lives without pretending everything is okay.

Amanda focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, low self-esteem, depression, and coping with life changes. She often helps people who are dealing with postpartum depression, isolation, midlife shifts, and struggles with self-love. Her work also addresses attachment issues and drug and alcohol addiction.

Her style is warm and straightforward. She offers compassion and also gentle challenges when growth is possible. Amanda emphasizes helping people understand why they respond the way they do and learning practical steps to move forward.

She brings ten years of experience as an Ohio LPCC to sessions. That background informs how she helps people set boundaries, quiet a harsh inner critic, or break repetitive patterns that cause pain. Amanda frames progress as a personal pace, not a strict timeline.

Therapy with her is collaborative. The person in therapy is the expert on their life, and Amanda helps make sense of experiences, build coping skills, and create change that fits real life. She works in English and does not accept international clients.

Therapeutic approaches and what online work can look like

Amanda uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on understanding patterns and building coping skills. One approach she commonly uses helps people identify and change repeated emotional responses to relationships and stress; it is useful for anxiety, depression, and attachment issues. Another approach she employs concentrates on breaking cycles tied to substance use and addictive behaviors by developing concrete coping strategies and relapse prevention skills.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist and client review goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before, then try methods that fit the person’s situation. Amanda adjusts pace and tools to match each person’s needs and comfort level.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the specific session formats when you book since the biography does not list formats. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow quicker check-ins on a stressful day. It can also mean using a shorter phone or video meeting when schedules are tight or low-bandwidth is needed. Talk with Amanda during scheduling to find the most practical option for your routine and goals.
