About Amanda
Amanda Omar is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Indiana with 10 years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, and anger. Her practice also addresses addiction, relationship and family concerns, parenting strain, career problems, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and compassion fatigue.
She focuses on practical skills and clear structure in sessions. Amanda uses approaches that teach emotion regulation and change unhelpful thinking patterns. Sessions tend to include talking through patterns, practicing new coping skills, and setting manageable goals to test in daily life.
Her background includes extensive work with people who face complex mental health needs and systemic barriers. That has involved helping adults with persistent or co-occurring conditions, and those affected by high-conflict family dynamics or generational trauma. She has experience with substance use and with clients who have interacted with the justice system.
Amanda describes her style as collaborative and structured. She places emphasis on building emotional regulation skills and on linking insight to action. The work often blends skill teaching with discussions about patterns that keep problems going.
Sessions aim to be candid and respectful. Amanda supports practical change by developing treatment plans that reflect a client’s goals and capacities. She encourages honesty about difficult or hidden parts of experience so those areas can be addressed directly.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and collaboration. It focuses on what the client brings to the room and on building a working relationship that supports change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches concrete skills to test new ways of responding. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds specific emotion regulation and distress-tolerance skills that help when anger or intense emotions arise.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Amanda will help you identify whether skills-based work, problem-focused CBT, or more relational approaches fit your needs. That choice is based on your goals, what has worked before, and what feels manageable in day-to-day life.
The biography does not list session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Therapists and licensed professionals often adapt DBT or CBT exercises for remote sessions so that skill practice and behavioral experiments continue between meetings.
