Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Amy uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical skills to change responses to stress, anxiety, and mood challenges. CBT is goal-oriented and often useful for managing daily symptoms and improving coping strategies.She also incorporates Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) techniques, which teach emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and improved interpersonal effectiveness. DBT can be particularly helpful for people struggling with intense emotions, relationship conflict, or patterns of self-destructive behavior.
Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the collaborative process. Amy works with clients to assess needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts methods over time so treatment remains practical and aligned with what a person wants to achieve.

Video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging provide flexibility for scheduling and make it possible to engage in consistent care from different locations. These options help clients maintain momentum between sessions, access support when life gets busy, and choose the format that fits their comfort and routine while working with licensed professionals and therapists.
