About Amy

Background and approach
She uses everyday language and straightforward tools so parents and individuals can apply ideas at home. Sessions are collaborative and paced to each person's needs. Her work addresses relationship concerns, parenting challenges, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, stress, anxiety, depression, and addictive behaviors.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Amy commonly blends client-centered work with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and building goals that matter to the person. It helps when someone needs validation and a clearer sense of direction.CBT looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches simple skills to change unhelpful patterns. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and managing stressful routines. DBT adds practical emotion regulation and distress-tolerance skills for intense emotions and relationship strain.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Amy will talk about goals, try different techniques, and adjust based on what helps most. The work is tailored to each person's needs, values, and pace.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video visits allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging make it easier to share quick updates, practice skills between sessions, or fit a check-in into a busy day.
These options provide flexibility for parents and busy people to access therapy around work, school, and family life.
