About Amy

Amy Flores is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Tennessee with five years of clinical practice and a decade of experience addressing behavioral and social-emotional challenges.

Background and approach

She draws on a strengths-based, client-centered orientation while integrating evidence-informed techniques such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, mindfulness, and motivational strategies to support people facing a range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship and family difficulties, and ADHD.

Amy approaches work with compassion and practical focus, aiming to reconnect clients with their existing strengths and help them move toward attainable goals. She emphasizes building a trusting therapeutic relationship as the foundation for change, and she adapts interventions to fit each person’s situation rather than using a single method for everyone.

Her background includes attention to communication and attachment issues, caregiver stress, mood and behavioral concerns, and life transitions, all approached with an emphasis on collaboration and gradual progress. Clients can expect a clinician who values respect, clarity, and realistic steps forward.

Amy frames each plan around the client’s needs and preferences, inviting active participation in setting goals and measuring progress.

Approaches That Guide Online Work and Progress

Client-centered therapy focuses on respecting each person’s perspective and building a collaborative relationship so clients feel heard and empowered to choose their next steps; it helps when support and mutual understanding are priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to distress, offering practical tools for managing symptoms like anxiety or depressive moods. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) brings attention to emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be useful for managing intense emotions and improving communication.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Amy works with clients to explore which methods fit their goals, preferences, and life circumstances, adjusting interventions as progress unfolds so therapy stays relevant and personalized.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life changes, and allow people to receive care from where they are most comfortable while working with a licensed professional.
