How Aimee works
Dialectical Behavior Therapy tools are offered for emotion regulation and distress tolerance. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps when emotions and relationships feel overwhelming. Motivational Interviewing can help people facing addiction or readying for change, while psychodynamic ideas are used to look at long-standing patterns.
In sessions she works step by step to build communication skills, relaxation techniques, mindfulness practices, and concrete coping strategies. Goal-setting is collaborative and aims for short-term wins along with longer-term growth. Aimee emphasizes practical skills people can use at home, at work, and in relationships.
She has 23 years of experience in mental health and provides care in English. Aimee supports people dealing with parenting stress, family and relationship strain, trauma and abuse, sleeping problems, career concerns, bipolar disorder, compassion fatigue, ADHD, and addictions. She also addresses issues like abandonment, adoption and foster care, caregiver stress, body image, and family of origin problems.
Work with Aimee begins with a clear discussion of goals and a treatment plan tailored to the individual. The focus is on helping people feel more capable, calm, and confident as they move through difficult situations.

How Aimee’s Approaches Work Online
Aimee uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thinking and change behaviors that keep problems going. CBT often focuses on concrete steps and homework that translate well to online sessions. Dialectical Behavior Therapy offers tools for managing intense emotions and building distress tolerance through practiced skills like grounding and breath work. Emotionally-Focused Therapy looks at how emotions shape relationships and helps people identify and express feelings more clearly in therapy.Choosing the best approach is a shared process. The therapist will discuss goals, history, and preferences and then recommend strategies that fit those needs. Together they will try techniques, check what is working, and adjust the plan so sessions stay useful and focused on the client’s priorities.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video is useful for full sessions and visual cues, phone sessions can be easier when lower bandwidth is needed, live chat suits quick check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing brief contact between meetings. These options make it simpler to keep therapy consistent around work, parenting, or travel.
