About Amie

Amie Healy is a bilingual Licensed Mental Health Counselor who focuses on helping adults, adolescents, and families navigate stress, parenting challenges, grief, and life changes. She communicates in English and Spanish and aims to make therapy straightforward and practical. Her style is warm and attentive, with an emphasis on building trust and listening carefully to each person’s story.

In sessions she uses clear tools from evidence-informed approaches. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thinking.

Background and approach

She uses Attachment-Based ideas to look at how relationships shape feelings and behavior. Mindfulness techniques are included when slowing down and noticing the present moment will help. Her background includes seven years of clinical work and a focus on issues such as trauma and abuse, anxiety, depression, relationship and family difficulties, addiction, and parenting.

She also addresses things like blended family issues, communication problems, caregiver stress, and separation after divorce. Amie adapts methods to match what each person needs rather than following a single template. Sessions are offered in multiple online formats so people can fit therapy into busy lives.

She approaches each meeting with empathy and focused attention, aiming to help clients make small, steady changes. For people looking for practical support with family or parenting matters, she centers the conversation on what will work in daily life.

Online approaches that center relationships and daily life

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationships affect how people feel and respond now. It helps with trust, closeness, and repeated patterns in family and romantic relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and the behaviors they lead to, and then trying practical steps to change them. It is often useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will listen to your goals, discuss options, and try methods together to see what fits best. That collaborative process helps keep therapy useful and grounded in the client’s real life and priorities.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. These formats can make it easier to fit sessions around school, work, and family needs. They also allow continuity of care when life or location changes, while keeping the focus on practical steps and relationship patterns rather than jargon.

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.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
