About Amanda
Amanda Mills is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor practicing in Ohio. She brings eight years of experience helping people manage anxiety, depression, relationship strain, and life transitions. Amanda emphasizes clear, practical steps and listens for what matters most to each person.
Her approach is straightforward and collaborative. Sessions focus on what is causing distress now and what small changes could make daily life easier. She uses a mix of skill-building, values work, and emotional awareness so clients can try things between sessions and report back on what helped.
Amanda has worked in inpatient care, intensive outpatient treatment, outpatient groups, and private practice. That range gives her experience with crises and with longer-term follow-up. She draws on tools from cognitive behavioral approaches and mindfulness to address patterns of thinking and feeling.
Attachment ideas and emotion-focused work shape how she looks at relationship struggles and intimacy concerns. Dialectical behavior ideas are part of how she teaches emotion regulation and coping skills. These methods are blended to match each person’s goals and pace.
She holds a master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health from John Carroll University and a bachelor’s degree in psychology from Taylor University. Amanda welcomes conversations about stress, addiction, grief, career pressures, fatherhood concerns, and LGBT issues, and she helps people outline realistic next steps toward their goals.
How Amanda’s approaches translate to online work
Amanda commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her practice. ACT focuses on clarifying personal values and taking action that aligns with those values while accepting uncomfortable feelings. It can help when people feel stuck or unsure which direction to take. CBT looks at unhelpful thought patterns and teaches practical skills to change behaviors and reduce symptoms like worry or low mood.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Amanda will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. She adapts techniques so clients can try them between sessions and report back, making adjustments as needed in collaboration with the client.
