Amanda Roland

Amanda Roland, LPC, supports people coping with trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, parenting stress, and life changes. She offers a calm, steady presence for those feeling overwhelmed by symptoms or stuck in unhelpful patterns. Amanda aims to create a warm, nonjudgmental space where people can tell their story and move at a comfortable pace.

Her approach centers on listening first and following the client's lead. She draws on client-centered work to meet people where they are and build trust. From there she mixes in practical tools from cognitive behavioral methods and solution-focused work to address thinking patterns and set reachable goals.

Amanda brings five years as a licensed professional counselor and a longer history in behavioral health roles back to sessions. Her background includes crisis stabilization, inpatient and outpatient settings, adolescent residential work, and in-home family therapy. She also serves as a co-responder with the Boulder Police Department and has worked with teens and foster children.

In sessions she helps people notice negative patterns and try different ways of responding. She uses mindfulness techniques to support grounding and attention, and DBT-inspired skills for emotion regulation when needed. The pace is collaborative and practical, focused on day-to-day coping and longer-term growth.

Amanda holds a Master of Science in Counseling from The University of Mary and a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from North Dakota State University. She is based in Colorado and works in English.

How Amanda uses therapy approaches online

Amanda integrates mindfulness practices to help people notice the present moment, calm racing thoughts, and build brief grounding habits that are useful for stress, anxiety, and mood difficulties. She also relies on client-centered work that emphasizes listening and collaboration so goals and pacing come from the person in front of her.

She brings in cognitive behavioral ideas to identify unhelpful thinking and try small behavior changes that can shift mood and daily routines. These approaches are practical and often paired with simple homework between sessions to test new ways of responding to stress and triggers.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Amanda will discuss options and help the client choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That decision is collaborative and can be adjusted as therapy progresses.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session formats before booking. Online therapy can make scheduling easier and help fit therapy into busy days, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Licensed professionals can use these formats to offer consistent support while focusing on skills, emotion regulation, and problem solving tailored to each person.
