About Amanda
Amanda Roland is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado with five years in private practice and a longer background in mental health work. She helps people who are dealing with trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, stress, addictions, relationship and family concerns, and issues like codependency and low self-esteem. She also supports people facing life changes, parenting challenges, and compassion fatigue.
Amanda prefers an approachable, person-centered way of working. She listens first and helps clients name the patterns that have them stuck. Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer thinking, not labels or quick fixes. She often uses tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to challenge unhelpful thoughts and from Solution-Focused Therapy to set small, steady goals.
Her background includes crisis stabilization, inpatient and outpatient treatment, in-home family work, and adolescent residential care. She currently serves as a Co-Responder with the Boulder Police Department, which has informed her experience with first responder issues. Amanda also has experience with trauma, adoption and foster care, and animal-assisted and equine therapies.
In a typical session she helps people identify boundaries, improve communication, and manage overwhelming feelings. She works at a pace the client sets and aims to support clearer decisions and more reliable coping skills. For people who struggle with people-pleasing or putting others first, she helps name those patterns and practice different choices.
Amanda holds a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from North Dakota State University and a Master of Science in Counseling from The University of Mary. She offers services in English and works from Colorado.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches used in online sessions
Amanda draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy along with a person-centered stance. CBT focuses on finding and testing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can help with anxiety, depression, and codependent thinking. DBT provides practical skills for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness, useful when strong reactions get in the way of clearer choices. She also practices a client-centered approach that emphasizes listening and following the client’s pace rather than imposing a fixed plan.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Amanda will discuss goals and preferences, then recommend techniques or combinations that fit a person’s needs. That collaboration helps shape what the sessions focus on, whether it’s building boundary skills, reducing anxiety, or developing coping strategies after trauma.
Confirm the current session options before booking, as specific formats are not listed in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, shorten travel time, and allow for a quicker check-in on stressful days. Some people prefer shorter meetings when they need a brief reset, while others choose a full-length session to delve into patterns. Amanda aims to help clients use their time in therapy in ways that fit everyday schedules and therapeutic goals.
