About Amanda
Amanda Slone is a licensed professional counselor clinical supervisor with more than two decades of experience. She focuses on practical ways to manage anger, stress, anxiety, and mood struggles so people can take clearer next steps. Amanda aims to make the first visit feel straightforward and respectful.
She uses a client-centered stance, listening first to what matters most to each person. Sessions are collaborative and goal-oriented, with room to talk through painful experiences like trauma, grief, or shame.
Background and approach
Amanda also brings tools for coping with addictions, compassion fatigue, and life transitions. Her approach blends skills training and short-term problem solving. Dialectical Behavior Therapy offers strategies for handling intense emotions and improving relationships.
Solution-focused techniques help set small, achievable goals to build momentum. Mindfulness practices are woven into sessions to help calm the body and focus attention in the moment. Motivational Interviewing is used when people feel stuck and need to explore reasons to change.
Together these methods are adapted to each person’s needs. Amanda emphasizes clear, practical steps between sessions. She helps people practice new behaviors, notice what works, and adjust the plan as needed.
Her aim is to leave people with tools they can use on their own. Based in Kentucky, Amanda brings 21 years of experience supporting people with depression, panic, PTSD, women’s issues, LGBT concerns, and related struggles. She works in English and focuses on helping people find steady, manageable progress.

Blending skills-based therapy with online flexibility
Amanda commonly uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy in online sessions. DBT offers concrete skills for managing intense emotions, improving distress tolerance, and reducing reactive behaviors. Client-centered work focuses on listening deeply and shaping sessions around what each person says matters most.She also uses Mindfulness Therapy to help slow racing thoughts and increase moment-to-moment awareness. Mindfulness practices are simple and can be practiced between sessions to reduce rumination and improve emotional regulation.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Amanda will help clients choose which methods to try based on their goals, life situation, and preferences. The process is collaborative and adjusts over time as progress is tracked.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video is useful for conversations that benefit from face-to-face interaction, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging are helpful for quick check-ins, brief coaching, or when a shorter touchpoint fits a busy day. These options make it easier to apply new skills between sessions and to keep momentum toward goals.
