About Amanda
Amanda Crossland is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado with seven years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addiction concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, relationship and intimacy-related issues, anger, low self-esteem, career stress, bipolar mood concerns, coping with life changes, and ADHD. She also focuses on codependency, abandonment, family of origin issues, and related struggles that make setting boundaries hard.
Amanda keeps sessions straightforward and practical. She listens and helps people identify small, concrete changes they can try between meetings. She uses several approaches to match what a person needs, including client-centered techniques and cognitive behavioral tools.
Her background includes a Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Grace University in Omaha, Nebraska. Amanda holds an LPC in Colorado. Over seven years she has worked with people managing addiction, mood disorders, and relationship patterns that leave them feeling stuck or drained.
In sessions she helps people notice patterns, test new behaviors, and practice boundary skills. EMDR and DBT-informed skills may be used when relevant, alongside motivational interviewing to support changes people want to make. She aims to keep therapy practical and focused on day-to-day improvements.
If someone feels lost in caretaking roles or trapped by other people’s problems, she helps name those patterns and build alternatives. To start, clients are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How sessions work
How Amanda uses therapeutic methods in online sessions
Amanda integrates client-centered work and cognitive behavioral therapy in straightforward ways. Client-centered therapy means the conversation centers on the person's experience and goals, with the therapist listening and reflecting to help clarify what matters most. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety, improve mood, and change relationship patterns.She also draws on DBT-informed skills when emotion regulation and boundary setting are priorities. DBT tools teach practical techniques for managing intense feelings, tolerating distress, and communicating more clearly. Together these approaches make therapy collaborative - the person and therapist decide which tools to try and adjust them as progress is made.
Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week. They can reduce travel time, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and make scheduling across different locations simpler. The original biography does not specify which online session formats are offered, so confirm the available session types before booking. Amanda will work with each person to choose an approach and session rhythm that fits daily life and goals.
