About Amanda

Amanda Eidemiller is a licensed social worker in Michigan with 30 years of experience. She uses a client-centered approach to create an empathetic space where people can talk through stress, anxiety, grief, and major life changes. Her style is respectful and grounded, focused on listening first and shaping the work around each person’s needs.

She helps people who are struggling with self-esteem, motivation, and confidence. She also supports those facing caregiver strain, compassion fatigue, and the challenges of chronic illness or disability. Conversations may include practical coping skills and ways to reconnect with a sense of purpose.

Amanda draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thought patterns and DBT strategies for managing strong emotions and building steady routines. She also integrates emotionally-focused ideas to help people understand and shift how they relate to themselves and others.

Her approach is collaborative: Amanda tailors the conversation and any plan to what the person wants to work on. She emphasizes small, achievable steps and clear tools people can use between sessions. The tone is compassionate but direct, aiming to help people regain a sense of control.

Sessions are offered in English and organized around the individual’s concerns and goals. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to availability. The subscription model for sessions can be canceled at any time.

How Amanda’s Approaches Translate to Online Work

A client-centered approach is built around listening and responding to each person. In practice this means sessions focus on what matters most to the individual and the therapist shapes questions and exercises to fit those goals.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions influence one another. In sessions this often means spotting patterns, testing new ideas, and practicing small behavior changes that reduce anxiety or improve mood.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, offers concrete tools for handling intense emotions and improving day-to-day routines. Techniques include emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and skills for clearer communication.

Finding the right blend of methods is a collaborative process. Amanda will discuss goals, try approaches, and adjust plans based on what feels most helpful. The client’s feedback helps guide which techniques are used and how sessions are structured.

Because session formats are not specified here, confirm the current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Some people find phone or video sessions let them meet during a lunch break or keep a consistent routine without commuting.
