About Amanda
Amanda Omar is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Indiana with 10 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, and people coping with addiction and compassion fatigue.
Amanda helps clients who are dealing with relationship and family challenges, parenting strain, anger, career concerns, bipolar disorder, and attention-deficit issues. She also addresses abandonment, attachment problems, adoption and foster care concerns, and caregiver stress. Her practice includes work with chronic illness, body image struggles, codependency, and the effects of domestic violence.
Her style is collaborative and structured. Sessions focus on identifying patterns, naming feelings that are hard to describe, and building practical skills for emotional regulation. She uses brief, direct conversations alongside skill-based exercises so clients leave with something to try between appointments.
Amanda draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy as part of her approach, along with Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and elements of the Gottman Method. She pairs insight with action and helps people move from understanding patterns to changing them.
Her background includes a decade of clinical work supporting complex mental health needs and people affected by systemic barriers. Amanda emphasizes respect and honesty in sessions and works with clients to create a clear treatment plan that addresses immediate concerns and longer-term goals.
How Amanda’s approaches translate to online sessions
Amanda commonly uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people name and process strong emotions and to recognize patterns in close relationships. EFT emphasizes feelings and the ways those feelings shape interactions and personal meaning.She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on listening and reflecting so the client’s own goals guide the work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thoughts and to build practical strategies for changing behaviors and managing symptoms like anxiety and depression.
Choosing the right approach is a shared process. Amanda works with clients to decide which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaboration can mean combining strategies from different approaches as the work progresses.
