Amanda Carter, LPC

Amanda Carter is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia with 16 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, trauma, depression, relationship and intimacy concerns, anger, self-esteem issues, career stress, and life changes. She also supports people struggling with compassion fatigue and multiple health-related or loss issues.

She trained at Richmont Graduate University, graduating in 2004, and has since worked with a wide range of concerns across many ages. Amanda favors a client-centered stance in sessions, which means she listens first and helps shape the work around each person's needs. She combines that stance with practical methods chosen to fit the person she is seeing.

In practice Amanda frequently uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. She also incorporates Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing when trauma processing is needed. These approaches are tools she brings into the conversation rather than rules to follow.

Sessions typically involve clear goals, problem-focused work, and attention to how feelings like anger and resentment show up in daily life. She helps people develop coping skills and new habits for handling stress, relationship strain, and addictive patterns.

People who choose her often want straightforward, practical support for tough problems such as grief, post-traumatic stress, chronic illness, or process addictions. She works with each person to plan the next step and adjust the approach as progress is made.
