Amanda Roland , LPC

Amanda Roland is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Colorado who focuses on supporting people through trauma, grief, relationship challenges, mood concerns, and major life changes. She brings a warm, nonjudgmental presence to the therapeutic relationship and emphasizes a collaborative style that helps clients explore patterns, build insight, and work steadily toward meaningful goals.

Amanda leans on a person-centered, humanistic foundation that prioritizes meeting each person where they are. She also integrates evidence-informed techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and other modalities to tailor treatment to each client’s needs. Her background includes work in crisis stabilization, inpatient and outpatient settings, adolescent residential treatment, in-home family therapy, and trauma-informed care, and she has specialized training in crisis counseling, trauma, and equine therapy.

Amanda holds a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from North Dakota State University and a Master of Science in Counseling from the University of Mary. She currently serves as a Co-Responder with the Boulder Police Department, which adds practical experience working alongside first responders and within community crisis systems. Amanda has five years of professional experience as an LPC and combines that clinical skill with a steady, compassionate approach. She is not currently accepting clients.

Person-centered and practical approaches for online therapy

Amanda uses a person-centered approach that prioritizes the client’s perspective and pace, creating space for self-exploration and personal growth. This approach helps when someone is facing complex emotions, identity questions, or the aftermath of trauma because it centers the relationship and the client’s own goals.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT is often helpful for anxiety, depression, stress, and patterns that interfere with daily functioning. Amanda may incorporate Solution-Focused techniques as well to highlight strengths and build practical steps toward short-term goals, which can help clients see progress quickly.

Finding the right blend of methods is part of the therapeutic process, and Amanda collaborates with each person to determine what fits best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. She works with clients to try different strategies and adjust the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy options - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to access support around work, family, or mobility constraints. These formats offer flexibility and can help clients maintain regular contact with licensed professionals and therapists while navigating busy lives.
