About Amy

Amy Phelps is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 18 years of clinical experience who supports people coping with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, addictions, ADHD and a broad range of relationship and life concerns.

Background and approach

She draws on evidence-based practice and a person-centered, trauma-informed stance to help clients navigate grief, intimacy issues, parenting challenges, sleep disturbances, eating concerns, and career or identity questions among many other areas. Her work also addresses attachment and abandonment themes, communication and commitment problems, codependency, blended family dynamics, and complex co-morbid presentations.

Her style blends clinical training with lived experience and supervisory leadership, emphasizing collaboration, transparency, and practical skill-building. Amy integrates approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Attachment-Based methods, adapting techniques to fit each person’s goals.

She describes her role as a guide in self-discovery, balancing direct feedback with empathy and respect. Located in Oklahoma, Amy values ongoing learning and clinical supervision and brings a history of recovery and service-minded leadership to her practice.

Her training as a clinical supervisor informs how she mentors other clinicians while keeping individual client needs central to the therapeutic process.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Options

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that align with their values, which can be useful for stress, anxiety, and navigating life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to depression, anxiety, compulsive behaviors, and some addiction-related concerns. Attachment-Based Therapy attends to patterns of relating and connection that influence intimacy, communication, and relationship difficulties, and can be helpful when attachment wounds or abandonment themes are present.

Selecting the right approach is often a collaborative process. Amy works with clients to explore goals, preferences, and presenting concerns, and she adapts methods from these frameworks to fit each person’s needs rather than using a single rigid model. This collaborative stance helps tailor treatment and supports gradual skill-building and insight.

Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexibility for varying schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to access consistent care from licensed professionals while balancing work, family, and other commitments, and they allow for ongoing communication and skill reinforcement between live sessions.
