About Amanda

Amanda Roman is a licensed marriage and family therapist in California with six years of clinical experience. She helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, and depression. Amanda focuses on practical steps that make daily life feel more manageable.

Background and approach

Amanda listens closely and offers clear, actionable ideas to try between sessions. Her approach blends several methods, including existential ideas about meaning and choice, acceptance and commitment techniques, and skills-based tools from cognitive behavioral and dialectical behavior therapies. Sessions often mix reflection about life direction with concrete exercises for mood and behavior.

This combination helps people clarify values and manage troubling thoughts and urges. Amanda pays attention to communication patterns and feelings of isolation or guilt. She works with clients on improving how they relate to others and to themselves, and on building self-compassion and healthier habits.

Impulsivity and difficulty with motivation are addressed with step-by-step plans and mindfulness practices. Overall, Amanda aims to support each person in finding more purpose and steadiness. She encourages realistic goals and steady progress rather than quick fixes.

Online support

Approaches that guide online sessions

A few approaches Amanda uses can shape how online sessions feel and what they focus on. Existential Therapy encourages looking at meaning, choice, and what matters most in life; it can help when someone is questioning purpose or feeling stuck. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on accepting difficult thoughts and committing to actions that align with values; it is useful for anxiety, avoidance, and motivation issues. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a supportive, empathetic relationship where the therapist follows the client’s lead and helps them find their own solutions.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Amanda collaborates with each person to figure out which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts techniques over time so sessions match what’s most helpful in the moment and support steady progress.

Online therapy offers flexibility and practical options. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, while phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is preferred. Live chat and text-based messaging can support brief updates, emotional processing between meetings, and ongoing reminders for skills practice. These formats make it easier to keep therapy steady around work, caregiving, and daily life.
