Amanda Rabourn

Amanda Rabourn is a licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) who focuses on trauma-informed, person-centered care. She aims to help people who feel stuck because of flashbacks, sleep problems, intrusive memories, or emotional triggers. Amanda presents a calm, steady presence and offers practical steps to improve daily functioning.

She brings nearly four years of clinical experience from work in a community mental health agency and a psychiatric residential mental health facility. That background shaped her focus on how past events affect thoughts, feelings, and behavior. Sessions center on identifying what keeps symptoms active and building skills to manage them in everyday life.

Amanda emphasizes collaboration. She does not use a single fixed method. Instead she and the client set clear, personal goals and choose strategies that fit those goals. This can include pacing work on difficult memories, learning stress management tools, and practicing new ways to respond to triggers.

People often come for help with anxiety, stress, low self-esteem, and challenges tied to trauma and compassion fatigue. Amanda also helps with body image concerns, attachment and abandonment issues, and struggles related to caregiving, relationship communication, and control. She mentions experience supporting those affected by domestic violence, divorce, fertility struggles, and first responder stress.

Sessions are intended to be gentle and healing while staying focused on progress. Prospective clients in Ohio can expect straightforward conversations about current challenges and step-by-step skill building to improve day-to-day coping.

Therapeutic approaches and online options

Amanda describes her practice as trauma-informed and person-centered, meaning she focuses on how past events affect daily life and works with each person to set meaningful goals. Trauma-informed work typically looks at triggers, sleep disruption, and intrusive memories to identify patterns that interfere with functioning and to build coping skills that reduce symptom intensity.

Person-centered care emphasizes the client's goals and preferences. The therapist uses listening, reflective conversation, and collaborative planning to decide which strategies to try. This approach helps when people want a tailored plan rather than a one-size-fits-all method.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Amanda will help clients weigh options and choose strategies that fit their needs, goals, and comfort level. That process is collaborative and revisited as progress is made or needs change.

If you are interested in online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking since specific formats are not listed in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Licensed professionals can adapt trauma-informed and person-centered techniques to remote sessions, focusing on measurable skills and weekly goals to support real-world changes.
