Amy Brant , LMFT

Amy Brant is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) in Indiana who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, and life transitions. She works with issues such as trauma and abuse, grief, addictions, parenting challenges, and intimacy-related struggles. Amy also supports people facing body image concerns, chronic illness, caregiving strain, and attention-related difficulties like ADHD.

She began her career in 1998 as a teacher for students with special needs and as a public school guidance counselor. Those early roles shaped how she listens and teaches practical skills. After more than a decade in schools, she pursued graduate training and earned her LMFT to focus more directly on how family history affects adult choices.

Amy draws on several therapy styles to match what a person needs. She blends Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and cognitive behavior techniques to help with unhelpful thoughts. She uses attachment-informed work to address close relationship patterns, and client-centered methods to keep sessions collaborative and respectful.

Sessions tend to be straightforward and practical. Amy aims to be an empathetic listener who helps clients make small, realistic changes. She will work with each person to set goals and try different strategies until something fits.

Her practice reflects three decades of helping people find more balance and cope with life’s challenges. Amy focuses on building useful skills, clearer communication, and healthier daily routines.

How her approaches translate to online care

Amy often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings and then move toward valued actions despite them. ACT can be useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes.

She also draws on Attachment-Based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. This work aims to improve how people relate in close connections and to reduce long-standing reactivity in relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Amy works collaboratively to match methods to a person’s goals, needs, and preferences. She will try different strategies and adjust the plan as progress and feedback indicate what helps most.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow fuller conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can fit a break at work or use less bandwidth, live chat is useful for quick check-ins, and text messaging supports brief ongoing reflection between sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and maintain consistent contact with a licensed professional.
