About Amelia
Amelia George is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Louisiana who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, parenting struggles, relationship pain, grief, and life transitions. She works with adults who are ready to change old patterns and build a more manageable daily life. Amelia aims to make the first steps feel practical and doable for people feeling stuck.
She uses straightforward, collaborative work in sessions. Amelia draws on Motivational Interviewing to support people who want to make changes, and she pairs that with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy when those approaches fit the client’s goals. She also uses client-centered and mindfulness approaches to help people notice thoughts and feelings without judgement.
Her style focuses on behavior and on small, repeatable steps that add up over time. Sessions often center on identifying what is working, naming barriers, and planning doable experiments to try between meetings. She pays attention to emotional safety while keeping conversations focused on what the person wants to change.
Amelia holds the LPC credential and has worked in counseling for three years. She draws on experience supporting people with issues such as postpartum depression, panic attacks, addictions, trauma and abuse, workplace stress, body image, and codependency. She lives and practices in Louisiana and brings a practical, down-to-earth approach to therapy.
Outside of clinical work she enjoys writing, photography, DIY crafts, and family time with her children and her dog Jaxson. Her personal interests inform a creative, flexible approach to helping people move toward the life they want.

How Motivational and Acceptance Approaches Work Online
Motivational Interviewing helps people clarify what matters to them and find personal reasons to change. It uses guided conversation to build motivation and reduce resistance, which can help with addictions, procrastination, or making health-related changes.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, teaches skills to notice thoughts and feelings without getting carried away by them. It focuses on values-guided action and can help with anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Client-centered therapy puts the person’s goals and perspective at the center and emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship.
Finding the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with clients about their goals and preferences, try strategies in sessions, and adjust the plan based on what helps. That collaborative process is part of the work, not a single one-time decision.
Because the profile does not list specific session formats, confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, let people choose a quieter moment for check-ins, and reduce travel time. It can also allow for shorter focused sessions when schedules call for a quick check-in rather than a full visit. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT and Motivational Interviewing techniques to work effectively in virtual settings, focusing on practical steps and homework that fit everyday life. -
