About Amanda
Amanda Omar is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Indiana with 10 years of clinical experience. She helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, relationship and family strain, parenting challenges, and substance use concerns.
She works in a straightforward, practical way. Sessions focus on identifying patterns that cause distress and learning skills to manage emotions and behavior. Amanda uses a mix of approaches to match what each person needs rather than a single fixed method.
Her background includes supporting adults with complex trauma, PTSD, co-occurring disorders, and persistent mental health conditions. She has worked with people affected by high-conflict family systems, generational trauma, and interactions with the justice system. That experience shapes how she assesses risk and plans treatment steps.
In sessions she balances structure and collaboration. There are chances to talk through painful memories, practice emotional regulation skills, and set concrete goals for daily life. She emphasizes practical tools you can use between meetings to reduce overwhelm and improve relationships at home.
People often come for help when they are burned out, worried about parenting, or struggling with mood and anger. Amanda aims to help clients make steady changes so day-to-day life feels more manageable and so they can handle family responsibilities with less strain.
How sessions work
How therapeutic approaches guide online work
Amanda uses evidence-based approaches that focus on both feelings and practical skills. Client-Centered Therapy means the conversation centers on the person's experience and goals, with the therapist listening first to understand what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors keep problems going and teaches tools to shift those patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, adds skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication when stress is high.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Amanda will discuss options and help decide what techniques fit the client's needs, goals, and how they prefer to work. That decision is reviewed and adjusted as therapy moves forward so methods stay useful and relevant.
The biography did not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, shorten travel time, and allow a quicker check-in between appointments when needed. It also lets the therapist and client practice skills that apply to everyday situations, such as managing emotion during a stressful conversation at home or trying a new coping strategy between meetings.
