Amanda WilsonLPC

Amanda Wilson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Mississippi with 21 years of experience. She helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress or anxiety, facing grief and loss, or struggling with relationship and family tensions. She speaks plainly and creates space for honest conversations without judgment.

Her background includes professional training in TeleMental Health counseling. She uses that experience to help people talk through painful memories and ongoing difficulties. Sessions focus on practical steps, clearer communication, and coping strategies that fit daily life.

Amanda incorporates Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, often called EMDR, when it may help process trauma or difficult memories. She combines that approach with supportive coaching to help people rebuild a sense of calm and control. The work moves at a pace the person finds comfortable.

She also addresses issues like parenting stress, codependency, addiction, and major life changes. Conversations cover problem-solving, boundary setting, and ways to reduce overwhelming emotions. Amanda aims to make each session feel manageable and goal-oriented.

People who choose her often want straightforward guidance and a steady presence during hard times. She helps people explore what matters most to them and find realistic next steps. The goal is to leave sessions feeling a little more capable and less alone.

How EMDR and remote care can support healing

Amanda uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, or EMDR, as one of her main approaches. EMDR helps people process distressing memories by pairing focused recall with guided bilateral stimulation, and it is often used for trauma and abuse-related symptoms.

Her TeleMental Health training means she has experience delivering counseling at a distance. She aims to adapt EMDR and talking-based work so people can progress even when meeting remotely, focusing on pacing and safety during sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist works collaboratively to decide whether EMDR or other strategies are a better fit based on a person’s history, goals, and comfort level. That choice is reviewed as work progresses so adjustments can be made together.

If you plan to use online therapy, confirm the specific session options before booking since formats are not listed in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy life, reduce travel time, allow shorter focused check-ins, and provide options when someone needs care from a different location within the same region. Licensed professionals can often tailor session length and pacing to practical needs without promising a particular outcome.
