About Amie

Amie Diminico is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Massachusetts with 12 years of clinical experience. She trained in counseling psychology at Northeastern University, earning both a bachelor's and a master’s degree. Her background includes long-term work in community mental health settings where she led individual and group work and coordinated care across teams.

She draws on practical tools from several well-known approaches. Sessions focus on clear goals and real strategies for everyday problems.

Background and approach

Amie emphasizes straightforward conversation and actionable steps rather than clinical jargon. Many people come for help with stress, anxiety, mood shifts, grief, relationship tension, parenting stresses, and life transitions. She also works with issues such as ADHD, addiction, body image, and caregiver stress.

Amie combines skills to match each person’s needs rather than following a single formula. In the room she pays attention to communication patterns and the effects of past wounds on present behavior. She uses techniques to notice thoughts and feelings, and to change unhelpful habits.

The work blends skill-building with attention to emotional connection. Her style is supportive and practical. She helps clients set measurable goals and track progress.

People who want clear tools, a calm listener, and step-by-step planning are likely to find her approach useful.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them while focusing on values and small steps toward what matters. It is useful for stress, anxiety, and life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thought patterns and behavior, and teaches specific skills to reduce symptoms and change unhelpful routines. It often helps with anxiety, depression, sleep, and anger. Attachment-Based Therapy attends to how early relationships shape current connection and communication, and it supports people who want to improve closeness and trust.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your needs, try methods that fit your goals, and adjust the plan as you go. You and the therapist decide together which techniques feel most helpful and practical for your situation.

Online sessions offer flexibility by letting you meet by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy family schedules and to check in between sessions. The varied options allow different kinds of support - focused skill practice, real-time conversation, or brief written check-ins - depending on what works best for you.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
