In sessions she listens, helps people name what matters to them, and breaks larger problems into manageable steps. The focus is on practical skills and workable plans people can try between meetings.
She earned a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Michigan State University in 1999 and a Master of Arts in Clinical Social Work from Michigan State University in 2010. Her credentials are listed as LMSW and LICSW. Mandy lives in Michigan, enjoys time with her teenage sons and her pug, and likes writing, reading, photography, and music.
How Mandy’s Approaches Translate to Online Work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and take committed action toward what matters. It can be useful for anxiety, low self esteem, and coping with life changes by focusing on small, value-driven steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which can help with depression, anxiety, sleep problems, and mood swings. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes an empathic, listening stance where the therapist follows the client's lead and supports self-directed growth.
Finding the best approach is part of the work together. Mandy will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. She combines tools from different approaches when that helps the person move forward in clear, manageable ways.
Confirm the available session options before booking since specific formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also let people choose whether to be on camera or use audio only depending on what feels most comfortable. Licensed professionals help tailor session length and pacing so therapy fits day-to-day routines without adding extra strain.
