About Amie
Amie Allanson-Dundon is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Pennsylvania with 27 years of experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, addiction concerns, trauma and abuse, depression, and anger, among other concerns. She works in English and draws on several clinical approaches to guide sessions.
Her style centers on person-centered work. That means she begins by listening and understanding where someone is right now. From there she blends different methods to address the specific concern, whether it is grief, relationship strain, parenting stress, or problems with sleep and eating.
Sessions typically focus on practical steps and real-life problems. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques to identify patterns in thoughts and behaviors. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are used when people need tools for emotional regulation and distress tolerance.
Amie also uses Emotionally-Focused and Jungian ideas when exploring relational patterns and deeper emotional themes. That mix lets sessions shift between short-term skill building and deeper reflection as needed. She notes and works with individual goals rather than applying a single method to every person.
Clients are asked to be active in planning their treatment. The therapist collaborates on goals and checks progress over time. For people wanting help with anger - whether it shows up at work, at home, or as built-up resentment - she offers straightforward, skills-based work alongside exploration of underlying issues.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and reflecting back what a person is experiencing. It helps people feel heard and clarifies goals before moving into other methods. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing behaviors, which is useful for anger, anxiety, and mood work. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers practical skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance and suits people who need concrete strategies to cope.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist works collaboratively to decide which methods to try first based on a person's goals and preferences. That means sessions can shift between skill practice and deeper exploration as progress is reviewed together.
Confirm the exact online session formats before booking, as the profile does not list specific options here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or reduce travel time. It also supports using shared exercises, worksheets, and skills coaching during meetings so practical strategies are easy to use between sessions.
