Online support options
Approaches that can be used online
Amy commonly uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early and current relationships shape emotions and interactions. This approach helps people improve connection, trust, and the ways they relate to others. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and many everyday struggles because it teaches concrete skills to try between sessions.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Amy collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. She will check in and adjust the plan so the strategies feel useful and realistic for the person's life.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is helpful for more involved conversations and skill teaching. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and messaging allow quick exchanges, homework sharing, and support between sessions. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into busy schedules.
