Amanda Fisher, LCMHC

Amanda Fisher is an LCMHC licensed in North Carolina with 10 years of professional experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, trauma and abuse, grief, and depression. She also lists codependency and intimacy-related concerns among her areas of focus and offers therapy that incorporates clients' faith when desired.

Amanda uses straightforward talk and practical techniques in sessions. She aims to help people talk through painful events, learn coping skills, and strengthen how they communicate with others. Sessions may include examining unhelpful thinking patterns, telling the story of a difficulty in a new way, and setting small, concrete goals to try between meetings.

Her early work included intake assessments, life skills classes, and co-parenting courses at community centers. She has experience in residential and outpatient settings where she supported adolescents and adults through crisis management, de-escalation, and hospital referrals when needed.

During graduate training at Colorado Christian University she completed supervised hours in faith-based settings, offering individual, couples, and group work and developing skills in grief support and trauma resolution. She also trained in Equine Assisted Therapy and provided clinical support at retreats for families and military communities affected by deployment and PTSD.

Amanda describes therapy as a cooperative effort. She helps clients set and work toward clear goals rather than promising a single method for everyone. People often come to her wanting help with communication, coping after loss or trauma, setting boundaries, or managing worry and stress.
