About Aimee

Aimee Lighty is an LPC who centers her practice on practical, collaborative work to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and ADHD-related concerns. She emphasizes a client-centered stance that pairs warmth and support with focused, goal-oriented strategies.

Background and approach

Time spent in sessions is aimed at producing tangible change rather than only exploring problems without next steps. With 15 years of professional experience in Pennsylvania, she draws mainly from cognitive behavioral methods while integrating solution-focused and client-centered ideas to address relationship and functioning difficulties.

Her approach can shift from gently light-hearted to more intense and emotive when clients need guided processing of painful experiences. Aimee values partnership in the therapeutic process and seeks to tailor interventions to each person’s priorities and circumstances.

She works with a range of concerns including mood and anxiety disorders, trauma and abuse, addictions, sleep and eating difficulties, self-esteem struggles, bipolar disorder, anger, parenting and family issues, LGBT matters, veteran and armed forces issues, and self-harm considerations. Sessions are offered through a flexible online format to accommodate differing schedules and needs.

Integrating evidence-based approaches with online flexibility

Client-centered therapy emphasizes understanding each person's unique perspective and building a collaborative relationship; it helps clients feel heard while identifying goals that matter to them. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and practicing practical skills to reduce symptoms like anxiety, low mood, and ADHD-related difficulties. Solution-focused therapy concentrates on strengths and small, actionable steps to create forward movement and resolve targeted problems.

Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the therapeutic process, and the therapist works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods best suit their needs, goals, and preferences. This collaborative planning helps tailor sessions so they remain efficient and relevant to the issues the client wants to address.

Online therapy formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, access regular support, and fit therapy into a busy life while working with licensed professionals who focus on practical, outcome-oriented work.
