About Amy
Amy Woodward is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) with eleven years of clinical experience. She works with people facing anxiety, stress, depression, trauma, phobias, and problems with sleep or anger. Amy also supports those dealing with addiction, ADHD, grief, relationship struggles, and career stress.
Her style is calm and collaborative. She listens first, then helps clients pick simple, practical steps they can use right away.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on what is manageable now - reducing overwhelm, improving daily routines, and building steady coping skills. Amy draws on cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and mindfulness to help people notice patterns and try new responses. She also uses client-centered and dialectical approaches to strengthen emotional regulation and communication.
These methods are chosen to fit each person’s goals and situation. She has practiced in Vermont and neighboring states, bringing experience with chronic pain, codependency, dissociation, and a range of personality-related concerns. Amy helps people sort through family issues, commitment and control problems, abandonment wounds, and forgiveness work.
Sessions can include short-term problem solving as well as longer work on identity, values, and relationships. Amy aims to help people build resilience and clearer direction so they can handle life changes with more confidence.
Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice stressful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, avoidance, and life changes where motivational focus matters. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to shift unhelpful patterns. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, sleeping problems, and phobias.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Amy works together with each person to decide which methods to try based on goals and what feels most helpful. That collaborative process can include mixing mindfulness, client-centered listening, DBT skills, or ACT exercises as needs evolve.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video lets you use face-to-face interaction for skill practice and deeper conversations. Phone sessions can fit into work breaks or be easier when video isn’t convenient. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief check-ins, skill reminders, and ongoing support between meetings. These options help people fit therapy into busy lives and keep progress moving forward.
