More about Amanda

  • 8 years' experience
  • Female
  • LPC

My name is Amanda Dunn, MA, LPC. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Colorado. I have worked in the mental health field for 5 years, primarily in outpatient settings. I have the most experience working with teens, young adults, new parents, and those who are struggling with anxiety, stress, depression, and processing past trauma.

My counseling style is warm, eclectic, and client-centered. I uses a variety of approaches to best meet your needs and I often pull from cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), solution-focused therapy, and more to target your areas of concern. I find I focus on each person as an individual and love to take a collaborative approach with you to find the best way to meet your personal goals. I believe in authenticity as a part of the therapeutic approach as a way to connect and cooperate with you.

"People cannot change other people, only themselves." - Unknown. I believe this quote is important when considering if you are ready for therapy. As a therapist, I am happy to walk along with you on your journey and provide you with information, education, support, and kindness as you make the changes you are ready to.

I believe anyone can benefit from counseling and taking that first step can be intimidating and well worth it!

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Reviewed March 2021

Amanda is a wonderful counselor! She expresses lots of kindness and empathy in each session, which shows how much she genuinely cares for her clients. She is incredible at remembering details about what you tell her, which is an important characteristic in a counselor because it makes you feel very heard. I would definitely recommend her!

Reviewed February 2021

Amanda is very kind and understanding. She responds quickly in a professional manner. I feel very supported and heard.

Reviewed January 2021

Amanda is very positive and encouraging. Her follow up has been helpful as I have been having "off" weeks, and I forget to check in. One recommendation I have would be to spend a little time reviewing different ways to communicate on BetterHelp. I didn't know about the voice record feature until about 2 months in, and that has been a game changer.

Reviewed November 2020

She's amazingly insightful and considerate.

Reviewed July 2020

Amanda is very respectful, timely, and easy to work with. She asks questions to help me work through issues and listens when I need to talk. Highly recommend!
