About Amanda

Amanda Braun offers straightforward support for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, or life changes. She is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, or LCSW, practicing in Pennsylvania and she keeps sessions practical and focused on what matters to each person. Amanda listens with respect and without judgment.

She helps clients untangle family tensions, manage depression, and build confidence. Conversations are tailored to the individual instead of following a fixed script.

Background and approach

Her work draws on approaches that help people notice their thoughts and take manageable action. She uses tools that teach coping skills, challenge unhelpful thinking, and bring mindful awareness into everyday life. Sessions aim to be concrete and useful from week to week.

Amanda also supports people dealing with caregiver stress, body image concerns, communication problems, guilt, shame, and the process of forgiveness and self-love. She breaks larger goals into small steps so progress feels possible rather than overwhelming. Clients meet her to talk through current struggles, practice new ways of responding, and build routines that reduce anxiety and boost confidence.

She encourages people to try changes at their own pace and to notice what helps most. Beginning therapy can feel hard, and Amanda treats that step as part of the work. She focuses on practical strategies and steady progress while keeping conversations compassionate and clear.

Online support

How Amanda Uses ACT, CBT, and Mindfulness Online

Amanda draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Mindfulness Therapy to support people remotely. ACT helps people clarify personal values and take committed action even when difficult thoughts are present. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking patterns and building new behaviors that reduce anxiety and depression. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention practices and gentle awareness that can reduce reactivity and improve emotional balance.

Finding the right mix of these approaches is part of the work. Amanda will collaborate with each person to decide which tools fit their needs, goals, and daily routines. Together they try strategies, notice what helps, and adjust the plan as needed rather than sticking to a one-size-fits-all method.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversations, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat and texting are useful for brief check-ins or when typing feels more comfortable. These options help people fit therapy into busy lives and maintain continuity between sessions.
