Amanda Dunn, LPC

Amanda Dunn is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Colorado. She brings eight years of work in mental health settings and focuses on helping people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, or past trauma. Amanda is straightforward and approachable in session and aims to create a space where people can talk honestly about what they are facing.

She works with teens, young adults, and new parents, and often helps people managing mood challenges, panic, sleep problems, or compassion fatigue. Intimacy-related issues, relationship concerns, and sexual topics such as BDSM and kink are also part of her areas of attention. Amanda also supports people dealing with dissociation, emptiness, isolation, and questions about gender identity.

Amanda uses a client-centered stance that keeps the person’s goals front and center. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing when those approaches match a person’s needs. Mindfulness practices and elements of the Gottman Method appear when relationship skills or stress regulation are priorities.

Her sessions tend to be collaborative and practical. Amanda helps people set reachable goals, learn coping tools, and track small changes over time. She offers education and concrete strategies as well as emotional support.

People who prefer direct guidance paired with warmth may find her approach helpful. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions based on the therapist’s availability.

How Amanda’s approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and helping people set their own goals. It is helpful when someone wants a respectful, nonjudgmental space to talk and decide what changes matter most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and uses simple exercises to reduce anxiety, panic, and low mood. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, known as EMDR, is a method used to process distressing memories and decrease their emotional intensity; it can be useful for people managing past trauma.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Amanda will discuss different methods and try options that match the client’s goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. She frames this as a collaboration and adjusts plans based on progress and feedback.

Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also makes regular work on skills and emotional regulation more convenient for people juggling school, parenting, or work commitments.
