Amie Berry , LCSW

Amie Berry is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than two decades of experience helping people through hard seasons. She practices from Georgia and focuses on common struggles like stress, anxiety, grief, depression, trauma, relationship and intimacy concerns, and workplace challenges. Amie also addresses women's issues and pregnancy or postpartum concerns. Her style is warm and interactive. She listens first and tailors sessions to each person's needs. Conversations tend to focus on practical steps people can try between meetings. Amie draws on client-centered work to keep the conversation focused on each person's values and goals. She uses cognitive behavioral ideas to identify patterns of thinking that worsen mood and to test new behaviors. Emotionally-focused techniques help people name and shift strong emotions that affect relationships. She also brings mindfulness and motivational interviewing into sessions when those approaches fit the goal. That mix lets her help with things like addiction, panic attacks, caregiver stress, blended family problems, and family-of-origin issues. Amie supports people navigating divorce, forgiveness work, and career transitions as well. Clients can expect a respectful, down-to-earth approach. Amie aims to help people find realistic next steps and clearer choices. She works collaboratively and adjusts the plan as progress unfolds.

Therapeutic approaches for online care

Amie uses client-centered therapy to keep the work focused on each person's values and goals, helping people describe what matters most and set steps that fit their life. She also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and try out new behaviors that can reduce anxiety or depression. Emotionally-focused therapy is used when relationship patterns and strong feelings are central, helping people name emotions and change how they connect with others. Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has worked or not worked in the past. Together they will choose or adjust approaches so the work feels useful and manageable. Online sessions can be scheduled as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video is useful for deeper conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging allow shorter check-ins, ongoing encouragement, or quick problem-solving between longer sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while balancing work, family, and other responsibilities.
