About Amy

Amy White is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a decade of professional experience helping people navigate stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, anger, depression, and ADHD-related concerns. She brings a respectful, compassionate stance to care and adapts conversations and plans to each client's circumstances.

Background and approach

Amy emphasizes practical skill-building alongside emotional support to help clients move toward more satisfying daily functioning. Her practice blends an individual-focused, client-centered philosophy with evidence-informed techniques such as cognitive behavioral strategies, attachment-based ideas, and mindfulness skills.

Sessions aim to reshape unhelpful thinking patterns, strengthen coping abilities, and develop concrete tools tailored to personal goals. Amy highlights collaboration in setting direction and adjusts interventions to match what works best for each person, recognizing that change begins with a courageous first step.

Approaches That Translate Well to Online Care



Amy uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help identify and reframe unhelpful thoughts, teaching specific strategies that address symptoms like anxiety, mood disruptions, and challenges with focus. She also draws on attachment-based ideas to explore relational patterns, helping clients notice how early and current relationships influence emotions and behavior. Mindfulness practices are incorporated to build present-moment awareness and reduce reactive responses.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative rather than fixed. The therapist will work with each client to assess needs, experiment with different strategies, and adjust the plan based on what feels most effective and sustainable. This process emphasizes shared decision-making and a clear focus on attainable goals.

Online formats - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to continue work between appointments. These options offer flexible scheduling and multiple ways to communicate, allowing therapists and clients to select the format that best supports the therapeutic work and daily routines.
