About Mandy

Mandy Dalrymple is a Licensed Master Social Worker and Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker based in Michigan with 25 years in the social work field. She focuses on building a strong rapport first so people can feel heard and understood. Mandy listens without judgment and helps clients set clear, realistic goals.

Her work commonly addresses depression, anxiety, stress, self-esteem, parenting struggles, relationship problems, and life transitions. She also supports people coping with bipolar disorder, ADHD, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, and sleep or anger concerns. She draws from a range of approaches to match what a person needs in the moment.

Mandy uses Mindfulness Therapy to help people notice thoughts and feelings without getting swept away by them. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy tools to help clients take actions that match their values and change unhelpful thinking patterns. Skills from Dialectical Behavior Therapy and client-centered methods are woven in when they fit the goals.

Her background includes work in foster care, adoption services, hospice, community mental health, inpatient psychiatric and detox settings, and private counseling. Those roles inform practical guidance for complex situations like chronic illness, caregiver stress, blended family issues, and co-occurring concerns.

Mandy makes space for everyday life details and aims to help people build skills they can use between sessions. She is a parent and enjoys reading, photography, and time by the water outside of work.

How Mandy’s Approaches Work Online

Mandy uses Mindfulness Therapy to help people notice thoughts and feelings without immediately reacting. That work can make it easier to manage anxiety, stress, and strong emotions by practicing awareness skills and simple exercises.

She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on clarifying values and taking small actions that matter. A client-centered stance guides sessions, with the therapist following the person’s lead and offering empathy and practical input when helpful.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Mandy will work collaboratively to identify which tools fit a person’s goals and lifestyle, and then adapt pacing and exercises to match needs and preferences.

The biography does not specify which online session formats are in use, so confirm the current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. For many people the flexibility helps maintain consistency while practicing new skills between sessions.

These summaries are based on the profile information listed on BetterHelp. Listing mindfulness as an approach does not mean a therapist holds a formal mindfulness training or certificate.
