About Amelia

Amelia George is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who focuses on common life stresses and relationship struggles. She helps people facing anxiety, depression, coping with life changes, grief, parenting challenges, and issues around self esteem and intimacy. Her approach is practical and direct, aimed at helping people make small changes that add up.

Amelia works from Louisiana and speaks English. She uses a mix of evidence-based methods tailored to each person’s needs.

Background and approach

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and mindfulness-based strategies appear often in her work. Sessions tend to focus on identifying unhelpful patterns, building new skills, and trying out different ways of responding to difficult moments. Amelia draws on three years of professional experience and holds a Texas LPC number TX LPC 96069 and a Louisiana LPC number LA LPC 7501.

She integrates motivational interviewing and client-centered techniques when helping someone clarify goals or find motivation to change. The emphasis is on practical steps rather than lengthy theory talks. Parents and people navigating blended family issues, postpartum concerns, workplace stress, or identity-related challenges may find her style approachable.

She also addresses trauma, addictions, and panic symptoms with strategies suited to the situation. Communication and safety in relationships are common topics in sessions. Outside of work she enjoys writing, photography, crafting, and family time.

Those personal interests inform a down-to-earth style in sessions that aims to meet people where they are and help them build toward a steady, sustainable change.

How Amelia’s Approaches Work Online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being driven by them. It focuses on clarifying values and taking small steps toward a life that matters, which can help with anxiety, depression, and life transitions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thinking and to try new behaviors, often useful for panic, depression, and stress management.

Client-centered techniques and motivational interviewing complement these approaches by centering what the client wants and building motivation for change. Sessions aim to be collaborative, with the therapist and client deciding together which strategies to try first.

Online formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions work when video is not possible, and live chat or text messaging can support short check-ins or work between sessions. These options offer flexibility for people juggling family, work, or travel while still accessing licensed professionals and structured therapeutic work.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
