About Amanda
Amanda Eidemiller is an LMSW licensed in Michigan with 30 years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, and big life changes. She also addresses compassion fatigue, attachment concerns, caregiver strain, chronic illness or pain, forgiveness, guilt and shame, and questions about life purpose.
She structures sessions around conversation that centers the client's concerns. Amanda uses clear, practical tools from approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy when helpful. She also draws on client-centered and emotionally-focused methods to notice patterns in feelings and relationships.
In sessions she helps people break down overwhelming emotions into manageable steps. She talks through what keeps guilt and shame active and offers ways to test unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. Work often includes identifying small skills to handle stress, build self-regard, and cope with change.
Amanda has worked in a range of settings over three decades and has experience supporting people through loss and long-term health challenges. That history shapes an emphasis on steady, practical work rather than quick fixes.
People can expect direct conversation, practical strategies drawn from evidence-based approaches, and attention to how relationships and attachment affect emotional life. To begin, follow the site’s steps to review online therapy options and schedule a first session.
How her approaches translate to online work
Amanda uses client-centered methods that focus on the client’s concerns and emotional experience. This approach involves open conversation and reflection to help people notice what matters most in their feelings and relationships.She also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy, which looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. CBT offers concrete techniques to test unhelpful thoughts and try small behavioral changes that reduce anxiety or diffuse guilt and shame.
Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Amanda will work collaboratively to figure out which methods fit a person’s goals and preferences, and she adjusts plans as needs change.
