About Amanda
Amanda Roland, LPC, offers calm, practical support for parents and people facing life’s heavier moments. She helps with stress, anxiety, grief, trauma, ADHD, depression, and parenting concerns. Her style is warm and down-to-earth, focused on listening first and moving at a pace that feels right for each person.
Amanda keeps sessions straightforward. She helps clients notice patterns that get in the way and tries simple tools to shift them. That can look like trying different coping skills, practicing small behavioral changes, or using focused conversations to set achievable goals.
Background and approach
Her background includes a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from North Dakota State University and a Master of Science in Counseling from The University of Mary. She is a Licensed Professional Counselor - LPC - in Colorado and has worked in mental health settings since 2007.
Over that time she has experience with crisis stabilization, inpatient and outpatient care, adolescent residential treatment, and in-home family therapy. Amanda also serves as a Co-Responder with the Boulder Police Department, and she has worked with foster children and teens. She brings that practical experience into sessions by offering steady, real-world strategies for coping, communication, and parenting challenges.
Therapy with Amanda mixes client-centered listening with tools from cognitive and solution-focused approaches. Sessions aim to build clearer choices and small, manageable changes that fit daily life. She values collaboration and helps people set goals they can actually use.

How Amanda’s Approaches Work Online
Amanda often blends Client-Centered Therapy with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in online sessions. Client-Centered work means she listens carefully and follows the person’s lead, helping clients name goals and make decisions at their own pace. CBT brings simple, practical techniques to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can help with anxiety, depression, and stress.She also uses elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy - DBT - when clients need skills for managing intense emotions and improving communication. DBT skills focus on emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer interpersonal boundaries, which can be useful for parenting stress and relationship difficulties.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Amanda will discuss different methods in early sessions and will help choose techniques that match the client’s needs, goals, and comfort level. That decision is collaborative and can change as progress is made.
Online therapy with Amanda is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video sessions are useful for face-to-face conversation. Phone sessions can be easier on low bandwidth or for brief check-ins. Live chat and messaging suit quick updates, mood tracking, or when typing feels more comfortable than speaking. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy parenting schedules and everyday life.
