About Amanda

Amanda Omar is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Indiana with 10 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, addiction issues, relationship and family concerns, parenting strain, and codependency among other challenges.

Amanda uses straightforward, practical ways to help people notice recurring patterns and try different responses. Sessions focus on building emotion regulation skills and clearer communication. She mixes structured skills practice with time to talk through what feels stuck in daily life.

Her background includes long-term work with people managing complex trauma, mood conditions, and substance use. That experience shapes how she plans interventions and sets realistic goals. Amanda often helps people who live with ongoing stress, high-conflict family dynamics, or caregiving burdens.

In the room she aims for a candid, collaborative style. Amanda helps people map what’s getting in the way, then practices concrete steps to change those patterns. She favors methods that combine thought-based tools and emotion-focused work so clients both understand and act differently.

Clients can expect sessions that balance support with skill-building. Amanda believes progress comes from pairing insight with practical practice. To begin, the usual steps are completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session through the listed online options.

How sessions work

Approaches used in online sessions and what they do

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely and building a respectful working relationship so people can explore what matters most. It helps when someone needs space to sort out feelings and priorities before making changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions link together. It uses practical exercises to test unhelpful thoughts and to try new behaviors for anxiety, depression, or codependent patterns.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches skills for managing intense emotions and reducing impulsive reactions. It is useful for people who want concrete tools for emotion regulation and clearer communication.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Amanda will collaborate with clients to choose methods that fit goals and preferences. She checks in about what helps and adjusts the plan as needed so the sessions stay relevant and doable.

The original biography did not list specific online session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also means some sessions can focus on practicing skills in everyday settings, and other sessions can be used for longer skill-building work.
