About Amaryllis
Amaryllis Thomas is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Michigan with 23 years of experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, low self-esteem, depression, and coping with life changes, as described in her work history. She also notes attention to relationship and family issues, trauma and abuse, sleep problems, parenting stress, anger, career concerns, and ADHD-related struggles.
Her style centers on listening and working alongside each person. Sessions are conversational and aim to let people talk through hard feelings and troubling thoughts. She uses familiar therapeutic tools rather than technical jargon so people can apply what they learn between sessions.
Amaryllis draws on client-centered methods to make space for each person’s perspective. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify thinking patterns that fuel anxiety or low mood. Dialectical behavior ideas and mindfulness practices are used when emotional regulation or intense feelings get in the way of daily life.
She has helped people address addictions, codependency, grief, and issues around abandonment and attachment. Practical steps and small skills are a common focus, such as setting limits, managing urges, and building routines that improve sleep and mood.
Amaryllis welcomes working with people who are nervous about starting therapy. The first session is used to clarify goals and practical next steps. Her written credential is LPC and she practices out of Michigan.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Amaryllis uses client-centered work to keep conversations grounded in each person’s concerns. That means sessions focus on what feels most pressing to the person and on practical steps they want to try. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is used to spot unhelpful thinking and test out different responses to anxiety or low mood. Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) elements and mindfulness practices help with intense emotions and building day-to-day coping skills.Figuring out which approach fits best is a shared process. She will review your goals and preferences and suggest techniques to try. Adjustments are made as needed so the work feels relevant and useful rather than abstract or one-size-fits-all.
The site notes session formats only when provided in the original biography; because formats were not specified here, confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, such as shorter check-ins during a break, avoiding commute time, or choosing an audio-only option when bandwidth is limited. Licensed professionals can still use CBT, DBT, and mindfulness tools effectively over remote sessions, and practical homework and skills practice can be assigned between meetings.
