About Amaryllis
Amaryllis Thomas is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Michigan with 23 years of professional experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, addictions, depression, self-esteem, and coping with life changes including relationship and family struggles. She also lists focus on issues such as parenting, sleep problems, anger, career concerns, ADHD, and compassion fatigue.
Amaryllis uses straightforward conversation to help people sort through what matters most to them right now. She draws on client-centered methods to listen and respond to each person's concerns. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and DBT skills for managing intense emotions.
Her background includes long-term clinical practice in Michigan where she has supported people facing trauma, abuse recovery, and complex life transitions. She notes experience working with addictions, bipolar concerns, and grief related to end-of-life care. That clinical range shapes how she helps people facing practical problems and painful feelings.
In sessions she encourages clear goals and practical steps alongside reflection about values and personal stories. Narrative therapy is part of how she helps people reframe difficult experiences. Mindfulness approaches are used when slowing down and building moment-to-moment coping is useful.
People considering therapy are invited to complete a short questionnaire and schedule a first session to see how her style fits. The practice uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and sessions vary in cost by location. Sessions are offered in English and international clients are accepted.
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the client. Online sessions let a therapist ask questions, reflect back concerns, and help set practical goals while you describe current struggles.Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) targets thought patterns and behaviors that maintain anxiety or depression. In remote sessions that can mean practicing skills, reviewing thought records, and setting small experiments between meetings. Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) emphasizes emotion regulation and coping skills. DBT work online can include learning grounding exercises, distress tolerance steps, and interpersonal effectiveness strategies useful for relationship and anger issues.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to decide whether client-centered listening, CBT, DBT, or a mix best fits a person's needs, goals, and preferences. That decision is shaped by what feels most helpful in early sessions.
The biography does not specify which session formats are used, so confirm the current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten travel time, allow check-ins during work breaks, or avoid being on camera when that feels difficult. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises, homework, and skill practice to remote sessions so work continues between meetings.
