About Amie
Amie Sherrill-Pierce is a licensed professional counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and parenting strain. She draws on 15 years of experience to offer steady, practical support. Clients often come for help with relationship tensions and life changes.
She approaches each person with compassion and respect for their values. Amie focuses on clear, usable tools that fit into everyday life. She uses client-centered work to listen closely and shape sessions around what matters most to each person.
Background and approach
She also uses cognitive behavioral ideas to spot patterns of thinking and try small behavior changes. Her practice pays attention to communication trouble, divorce and separation, loneliness, and forgiveness work. She helps people set simple goals, practice new ways of talking, and try coping steps between sessions.
Parents find help sorting out stress and managing daily demands. Amie brings a faith-informed perspective when it is helpful, while respecting each person's own beliefs. That means faith can be part of the conversation if the client wants it.
The emphasis is on rebuilding connection and finding steady coping skills. Sessions aim to build practical skills and clearer thinking so daily life feels more manageable. People leave with steps they can try right away.
Over time the emphasis shifts toward maintaining gains and handling setbacks more easily.

How her approaches translate to online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and working from the client's goals. In practice that means sessions begin with the person's concerns and priorities, and the therapist shapes conversation around what matters most. It helps with relationship tension, parenting stress, and finding emotional support.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and actions affect feelings. It uses clear steps to notice patterns, test unhelpful thinking, and try small behavior changes. This approach is useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life transitions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will help figure out which methods match the client's needs, goals, and preferences, and will adjust as progress is made. That collaboration makes it easier to try strategies that feel realistic for daily life.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video works well for in-depth conversation and visual cues. Phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging are useful for quick check-ins, homework support, or when typing feels more comfortable. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, parenting, and other commitments.
