About Amy
Amy Brant is a licensed marriage and family therapist who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, grief, trauma and abuse, and life changes. She works with issues such as addictions, parenting strain, intimacy-related concerns, anger, self-esteem, and career stress. Amy brings three decades of clinical experience to her work in Indiana and speaks English.
Amy began her professional journey in education, teaching students with special needs and serving as a public school guidance counselor.
How Amy works
Those early roles shaped how she sees behavior and relationships, and they influenced her decision to earn a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist credential. She has continued to build on that foundation across many years of practice. Her style is collaborative and down-to-earth.
Amy listens first and then helps people decide on practical steps. She uses straightforward tools and short-term strategies when that fits, and more in-depth work for people who need it. In sessions she may focus on patterns that come from past relationships and attachment, on changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, or on building acceptance and values-based goals.
She also draws on skills for handling intense emotions and improving communication. The emphasis is on what matters to the client and on usable skills between sessions. Amy offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to accommodate different schedules and preferences.
To get started, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule based on therapist availability.

Online support options
Online approaches that fit your life
Amy often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice their values and take small actions that move them toward what matters. ACT focuses on accepting difficult feelings while committing to meaningful steps, which can help with anxiety, depression, and life transitions.She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. This approach helps people understand emotional needs, improve connection, and break repeating cycles in relationships.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels helpful, and then recommend methods to try. That collaborative process lets clients test tools and change course if needed.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit busy schedules. Video is useful for direct conversation and visual cues, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and messaging lets people share between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or travel routines while still working with licensed professionals.
