About Amanda
Amanda Elliott is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in Maine with four years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, and self-esteem struggles. Amanda also addresses relationship and family concerns and a range of life transitions.
She uses a straightforward, client-focused approach that starts by listening to each person's story. Amanda treats the person as the expert on their life and builds on individual strengths to set practical goals. Sessions often involve talking through current struggles and trying small changes that can feel workable day to day.
Amanda draws on Client-Centered Therapy to keep the conversation grounded in what matters to the client. She also incorporates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify thinking patterns that make stress and anxiety worse. For people affected by past harm, Amanda uses Trauma-Focused Therapy approaches to address triggers and coping skills.
Her practice includes support for concerns often tied to codependent patterns, such as trouble saying no, people-pleasing, and feeling responsible for others' moods. She helps people practice boundary-setting, clearer communication, and self-awareness skills that can reduce reactive responses.
Sessions aim to be practical and paced to what a person can manage. Amanda works in English and practices in Maine. Prospective clients should confirm current session options and scheduling steps before booking.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Amanda uses Client-Centered Therapy to focus on each person's priorities and to follow what matters most in sessions. That approach emphasizes listening, reflection, and shaping the conversation around your goals. It can help when you need room to tell your story and decide next steps.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions. CBT offers concrete exercises and experiments you can try between sessions to reduce anxiety, shift unhelpful thinking, and improve mood. Trauma-Focused Therapy is used when past hurt affects current responses; it includes skills to manage triggers and gradual ways to process painful memories.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Amanda collaborates with clients to choose or blend methods based on needs, goals, and what feels doable. She reviews progress and adjusts the plan as you go.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking.

Many people find that remote sessions let them practice skills in real-life routines while still getting professional support.
