About Amanda
Amanda Williams is a Licensed Professional Counselor who focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, depression, and coping with life changes. She writes in a warm, down-to-earth way and aims to make therapy feel approachable for people who are nervous about starting. Amanda brings creative methods into sessions while keeping things grounded and practical.
She believes the body and mind are linked. Movement and somatic work are part of how she helps people notice feelings and physical reactions.
Background and approach
Amanda also uses Brainspotting to help access hard-to-reach memories and sensations that get in the way of feeling better. Sessions include talking, gentle movement, and guided attention to sensations in the body. Amanda works to create a calm pace and clear goals so people know what to expect each week.
She emphasizes small, concrete steps that build coping skills and increase self-compassion. Amanda has three years of counseling experience and holds the LPC credential, which stands for Licensed Professional Counselor. She practices from Arkansas and offers online options so people can choose what fits their life.
Her approach is collaborative: she listens first, then helps tailor methods to each person’s needs. People who come for help with panic, shame, attachment wounds, or major life changes will find a practical, creative focus in sessions.
How Amanda blends body-focused work with online therapy
Amanda uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that bring attention to both feelings and the body. Brainspotting helps people locate where difficult memories and sensations sit in the body so they can be processed; it is often used for trauma and post-traumatic stress. Movement-based approaches invite small, guided movement or body attention to help reduce tension and increase awareness of how emotions show up physically.Choosing the right method is a collaborative process. Amanda listens to each person’s concerns, goals, and comfort with different techniques, then recommends approaches to try. She checks in regularly and adjusts methods based on what is helpful and what feels manageable for the client.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video lets the therapist and client see nonverbal cues and try gentle movement prompts. Phone can be used when bandwidth is limited or a simpler check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging support shorter check-ins, journaling-style exchanges, or ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, school, or caregiving schedules while keeping the focus on steady progress and practical skills.
