More about Amy
- 16 years' experience
- Female
- LCMHC, LPC
I am a licensed therapist in North Carolina with over 16 years of professional experience supporting individuals navigating stress, anxiety, trauma, LGBTQ+ related concerns, intimacy challenges, eating disorders, and self-injury. I hold specialized training in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and Brainspotting, both of which are powerful, evidence-based approaches for healing trauma and enhancing emotional well-being.
My approach is grounded in creating a safe, compassionate, and nonjudgmental space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings openly. I believe in the strength it takes to begin the healing journey, and I’m here to walk alongside you as you work toward a more fulfilling and meaningful life.

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
