Approaches that meet you where you are - online

Amanda Hawkins draws from evidence-informed approaches that can translate well to online therapy. In Client-Centered Therapy, the focus is on creating a supportive space where clients can clarify what they are feeling, strengthen self-trust, and move toward goals that matter to them. This approach can be especially helpful when self-esteem, confidence, or motivation feel shaken.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) brings practical skills for managing intense emotions, handling stress, and improving relationships through tools like distress tolerance and emotion regulation. Mindfulness Therapy adds strategies for noticing thoughts and feelings without getting pulled into them, which can be useful when anxiety or grief feels consuming.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Amanda collaborates with clients to understand their preferences, current challenges, and goals, then adjusts the work so therapy feels relevant and usable in daily life.

Online therapy also offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options can make it easier to fit support into a busy schedule, keep momentum between sessions, and choose the format that feels most comfortable.
