More about Amy
- 18 years' experience
- Female
- LPC
I am a licensed professional counselor in the State of South Carolina. I have worked in the mental health field for over 20 years. I have experience working with teens and adults with various issues related to trauma, anxiety, depression, LGBTQ+, loss and grief, career issues and mood disorders. I specialize in working with all ages with trauma.
My therapeutic approach is one with kindness and warmth. You will find no judgement with me! I have experience with several treatment modalities including EMDR, TFCBT, mindfulness, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. My goal is to work with people to fulfill their fullest potential, healing from trauma, and regaining a new perspective on life.
I look forward to working with you!

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.

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.
