About Amelia

Amelia George is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) with three years of clinical experience based in Louisiana. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationships, parenting, self-esteem, coping with life changes, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related issues, anger, career concerns, bipolar disorder, and depression. Her profile also notes a focus on blended family issues, body image, codependency, and related concerns.

Her approach is practical and action-oriented. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to look at behaviors and thoughts that keep people stuck. She also draws on client-centered methods and mindfulness to slow things down and notice what matters most. Sessions often include clear steps and experiments to try between meetings.

Amelia frames therapy as building a bridge from where someone is now to where they want to be. She works with adults aged 18 and over and helps with issues like postpartum depression, parenting conflicts, grief, and transitions. She encourages clients to identify small, achievable changes and to practice them in day-to-day life.

Her background includes training in motivational interviewing and solution-focused techniques, which she uses to boost motivation and clarify goals. Amelia is active in regional and national counseling organizations and keeps up with approaches that help clients change unhelpful behaviors.

Outside of work she enjoys writing, DIY crafts, photography, and family time. She lives in the river parishes of Louisiana and brings a practical, down-to-earth style to sessions.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches used in remote work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting controlled by them. It focuses on actions that line up with personal values and can help with anxiety, low mood, and relationship conflicts. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thinking and behaving that keep problems going and teaches concrete skills to change them, which is useful for panic, depression, and worry. Client-Centered Therapy centers on listening and reflecting so clients can clarify their own goals and make choices that feel right.

Finding the right blend of methods is part of the work. The therapist and client discuss goals, try approaches in session, and adjust based on what fits. This is a collaborative process that aims to match methods to the person’s needs and preferences.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know which formats are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten check-ins when time is limited, and avoid commutes. It also lets people keep momentum between in-person visits and practice skills in their daily environments. Licensed professionals will discuss scheduling, session length, and any practical details when you begin the matching process.
