About Amanda Omar

Amanda Omar is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Indiana who brings over a decade of experience supporting people with complex mental health needs, trauma, and systemic barriers.

Amanda specializes in supporting adults coping with anxiety, depression, PTSD, complex trauma, substance use, and co-occurring disorders.

Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care

Amanda frequently uses Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on creating a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the client’s perspective guides the work and self-directed growth is encouraged. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is another core approach, offering practical techniques to identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns that contribute to anxiety, depression, and stress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds focused skill-building in emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be especially helpful for strong emotion, relationship difficulties, and crises.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process; Amanda works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods align with their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors treatment plans and adjusts strategies over time so therapy remains relevant and effective for the individual.

Online therapy with Amanda is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility and access. These options make it easier to fit regular sessions into a busy life, maintain continuity of care during transitions, and connect from familiar environments while working toward concrete, practical goals with a licensed professional.
