About Amanda
Amanda Jenson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with ten years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, relationship strain, anger, low self-esteem, and major life changes. Amanda aims to make therapy straightforward and practical for busy adults and caregivers.
She spent much of her career as an elementary school counselor, supporting students and the adults involved in their lives. That background shaped her calm, patient style and her focus on clear tools people can use right away.
How Amanda works
Sessions emphasize simple strategies for coping and feeling steadier day to day. Amanda works from evidence-based methods and adapts techniques to each person’s needs. In sessions she teaches emotion regulation skills, communication tips, and ways to boost self-worth.
The aim is to help clients build resilience and handle challenges with more confidence. Her approach is collaborative and nonjudgmental. She listens closely, helps set realistic goals, and practices new skills together so they feel doable outside of therapy.
Many clients leave with a plan they can follow between sessions. People who come to Amanda often want practical support for real problems. Whether facing a big life transition or ongoing anxiety, she helps clients break problems into manageable steps and build habits that support lasting change.

Evidence-based approaches and how they help online
Amanda draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skills people can use every day. One common focus is emotion regulation work, which teaches ways to notice and manage intense feelings so reactions feel more manageable; this helps with anxiety and anger. Another key element is communication skills training, which practices clear, direct ways to express needs and set boundaries to ease relationship tension.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Amanda treats the choice of techniques as collaborative and will tailor methods based on a person’s goals, preferences, and what seems to help in early sessions. She checks in regularly and adjusts the plan as needed so strategies fit into real life.
If you prefer online therapy, confirm the available session formats before booking since the biography does not specify them. Online options can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when days are tight. Licensed professionals can still teach and practice skills effectively over distance, so the focus remains on building coping strategies and better communication that translate into everyday routines.
