About Amy
Amy Norberg is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in West Virginia. She draws on 13 years of experience to help people who are dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship and parenting stress. Amy aims to make therapy straightforward and practical so people can start feeling better day to day.
Amy uses a mix of approaches to match each person's needs. She often brings in acceptance and commitment techniques to help people clarify values and take workable steps.
How Amy works
Cognitive behavioral tools are used to identify unhelpful thoughts and develop healthier patterns. Her work also includes client-centered listening that focuses on what the person wants to change. For intense emotional dysregulation or ongoing crisis, she uses skills drawn from dialectical behavior therapy to stabilize emotions and improve coping.
Emotionally-focused ideas guide work on closeness, trust, and intimacy concerns. Amy supports people facing a wide range of life challenges, including sleep and anger problems, career stress, ADHD-related struggles, and complicated feelings like guilt or shame. She also helps with issues related to adoption and foster care, body image, and isolation or loneliness.
Sessions are offered through video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Amy describes therapy as a collaborative process where the client sets goals and she helps plan the steps. To begin, a short matching questionnaire and scheduling are used to connect people with an appropriate session time.

Online support options
Approaches you can use in online sessions
Amy commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify what matters to them and then take small steps toward those values. ACT emphasizes noticing thoughts without getting stuck and committing to meaningful action, which can help with anxiety, depression, and life transitions.She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot patterns of thinking that make problems worse and to practice new behaviors. CBT is practical and skill-focused, useful for issues like sleep problems, stress, and mood concerns. Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas are used when intimacy, trust, or emotional connection are central concerns; those techniques help name emotions and shift patterns that block closeness.
Finding the right fit is part of the work. Amy partners with each person to choose approaches that match their goals, preferences, and the problems at hand. She will discuss options and adjust methods as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make therapy more accessible. Video is helpful for deeper discussions and visual connection, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits focused check-ins, and texting works for brief check-ins and ongoing reminders. These options aim to fit therapy into busy lives and different routines.
