About Amy
Amy works with people who feel stuck after major changes, who struggle with communication, or who worry about commitment and abandonment. She also helps those managing chronic illness, caregiver strain, body image concerns, or the emotional ripple effects of cancer. Neurodiverse adults and those facing aging or blended family adjustments are within her range of focus.
Her style is practical and person-centered. Sessions begin by listening to what matters to the client, then pick a few concrete goals to address. Amy uses straightforward tools drawn from cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused strategies to build coping skills and improve daily functioning.
Many sessions deal with improving relationships, reducing anxiety, and strengthening self-worth. Amy helps people practice clearer communication and manage overwhelming feelings in small, manageable steps. Over time she supports clients in making choices that match their values and priorities.
People who prefer a collaborative, down-to-earth approach often find her style welcoming. Amy aims to create a space where practical problem solving and emotional work happen together. Her long career in Arizona informs a calm, steady presence for clients navigating change.
Therapeutic approaches you can use online
Amy commonly combines Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people facing anxiety, low self-worth, relationship stress, and life transitions. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person’s unique experience so goals come from the client. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at thoughts and behaviors, teaching concrete techniques to reduce worry and change unhelpful patterns.Finding the best mix of approaches is part of the work. Amy will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, preferences, and the problems they want to solve. She checks in regularly and adjusts the plan as progress or new concerns arise.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video sessions are useful for deeper conversations and visual cues, phone sessions can fit a quick check-in or when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or live chat can work for brief updates or ongoing support between appointments. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to keep momentum during transitions.
