About Me
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and Mindfulness Practitioner. I have been a counselor for over 18+ years in Maine and South Carolina. I have worked in a variety of settings, with clients of ranging in ages from 13 to 75, with a wide range of concerns such as dealing with grief and loss, low self esteem. Mood disorders such as depression, bi-polar, and anxiety. I help individuals evaluate current life satisfaction and set goals to increase that satisfaction level. I am also an addictions specialist.
My counseling style is empathetic, warm, supportive, and non-judgmental. My goal is to always meet my client were they are. You are the expert on you. My job is to support and help guide you along your journey to wellness.. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. My approach combines and may use several theories and techniques that include Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), mindfulness and Solution Focused strategies.
Asking for help is difficult, I applaud you for taking the first step in taking control of your emotional wellness.
I look forward to working with you!

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Amanda Williamson. We don’t pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
Very nice
I want to thank amanda for always listening to me.
Ater numerous phones calls to therapy offices, and with no return calls at all, a friend recommended BetterHelp.com. Within minutes I was connected with a therapist, scheduled an appointment, and have now completed our 3rd session.
Thank you.
Amanda is very responsive and thinks about me and my life. I think she is great!
My therapy sessions with Amanda are the first bit of hope I’ve had in a while now on my mental health journey. Our conversations are refreshing and to the point, and I feel like my time is always respected with Amanda. I never leave without something I can take with me, some skill I can use or some hope in the future. I would definitely recommend her services, she is an excellent therapist and a great person.
