About Amy

Amy is a Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, and a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor, LCMHC, with 16 years of experience in behavioral health.
Amy uses an approachable, down-to-earth style in sessions. She focuses on what each person needs rather than one fixed method.
How Amy works
Conversations tend to be practical and goal-focused, with moments to process feelings and build new coping skills. Her work covers a range of concerns, including addictions, relationship and intimacy-related issues, parenting stress, grief, self-esteem struggles, anger, bipolar mood challenges, and compassion fatigue. She also offers coaching for people who want direction on career or life decisions.
Amy draws on client-centered techniques to make sessions feel collaborative and on cognitive-behavioral tools to tackle unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. She also uses elements of dialectical behavior therapy and mindfulness to help with emotional regulation and present-moment awareness. Many people find the mix of practical strategies and empathetic listening useful when facing hard choices or persistent symptoms.
Amy adapts her approach as work progresses so the plan fits changing goals and circumstances.

Therapeutic approaches and online care
Amy often uses client-centered work to make sessions collaborative and respectful, focusing on the person's goals and strengths. This approach helps people feel heard and guides the direction of therapy.She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. CBT provides concrete tools to change unhelpful thinking and behavior, useful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Amy will work with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. She adjusts plans over time so strategies remain useful as issues change.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is good for deeper conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text are helpful for shorter check-ins, ongoing coaching, or when scheduling flexibility matters. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy days and different routines.
