Amanda Lovin, LPC

Amanda Lovin is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) based in Georgia who helps people work through addiction, trauma, and relationship struggles. She brings nine years of counseling experience to sessions and focuses on practical ways to manage anxiety, depression, and life changes.

Her style is warm and interactive. She aims to offer tools and steady support while people make changes at their own pace. Sessions center on clear skills and moments of reflection rather than long lectures.

Amanda draws on several approaches to fit each person’s needs, including cognitive-behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thinking and dialectical behavior methods for emotion regulation. She also uses attachment-based ideas to look at how past relationships shape current patterns and client-centered skills to keep sessions grounded in the person’s goals.

She has worked extensively with substance use and process addictions, and also supports people facing grief, compassion fatigue, ADHD-related struggles, and intimacy concerns. Her additional focus areas include abandonment, codependency, guilt and shame, and issues relevant to veterans and first responders.

Sessions are structured around a collaborative plan. Amanda helps people set realistic goals, try new skills between meetings, and adjust the plan as needed. People who want straightforward guidance and steady encouragement may find her approach helpful.

How Amanda’s Approaches Work Online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and focus on actions that match their values. It is useful for stress, anxiety, and when life feels out of step with what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical strategies to change patterns that cause distress. CBT is often used for depression, anxiety, and coping with change. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills for intense emotions and relationship struggles.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Amanda works collaboratively with each person to pick methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. She adjusts the plan as progress is made so sessions stay focused and useful.

Session logistics are not listed here, so confirm current online options before scheduling. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Many people find remote sessions help them use skills in the moment and continue therapy while managing work, caregiving, or travel.
