About Amanda

Amanda Mason is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Georgia with 17 years of clinical experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and life changes. She also addresses compassion fatigue, addictions, LGBT concerns, relationship and intimacy issues, eating concerns, career stress, and bipolar-related challenges.

Her work often focuses on practical problems people face day to day. She talks through coping skills for difficult emotions and helps people create manageable routines. Sessions include conversations about parenting strains, caregiving stress, and the impact of illness or aging on family roles.

Amanda uses therapy methods that aim to change unhelpful thoughts and patterns. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice thoughts, test them, and move toward values-based action. Narrative Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy are used to highlight strengths and past successes.

She has particular experience with issues tied to major life events. That includes navigating divorce and separation, cancer-related emotional challenges, hospice and end-of-life concerns, and post-traumatic stress following sexual assault or other trauma. Seasonal Affective Disorder and the stresses of young adult life are also areas she often addresses.

Sessions are presented in straightforward language and focus on usable strategies. People looking for a licensed social worker in Georgia can expect a practical approach that connects day-to-day problems with techniques for managing them.

BHow sessions work

How Amanda’s approaches translate to online work

The therapist uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify and test unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT helps people break cycles that feed anxiety and depression by practicing new ways of responding to difficult situations.

She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to focus on values and committed action. ACT helps clients notice painful thoughts without letting those thoughts dictate choices, which can be useful for grief, chronic stress, and compassion fatigue.

Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist and client will review goals, preferences, and daily realities to choose methods that fit. That plan can be adjusted over time based on what is working.

Confirm the specific session formats before booking since the biography does not list formats. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, such as shorter check-ins during a workday, phone options when bandwidth is limited, or video sessions when visual cues help the conversation. Ask about the available format when scheduling so sessions match your needs and routine.
