About Amy
Amy Boggs is a licensed independent social worker with 19 years of clinical experience in Ohio. She focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, grief, parenting concerns, relationship issues, and coping with life changes. She also addresses addictions, self-esteem struggles, anger, career stress, and compassion fatigue.
Her style is warm and straightforward, aimed at helping people name problems and try workable steps forward. Amy uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, a practical approach that looks at thoughts, behaviors, and feelings together.
Background and approach
In sessions she helps people spot unhelpful thinking and try different actions to see what changes. Conversations are direct and focused, with an emphasis on small, doable skills to manage symptoms and daily stress. She brings experience with a broad range of life situations including adoption and foster care, aging and caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, and family of origin issues.
Amy also addresses divorce and separation, codependency, infidelity, and end-of-life concerns. Her work includes grief, guilt and shame, isolation, and forgiveness issues. Amy practices from an approach that blends practical tools with attentive listening.
She helps clients prioritize what feels most urgent and builds a plan that fits their life. Clients can expect concrete assignments between sessions when those fit their goals. Sessions are offered in English and provided through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging.
Her Ohio LISW license is listed as OH LISW I.0009161-Supv.
Practical approaches for online support
CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It helps people change unhelpful thinking patterns and try small behavior changes to reduce anxiety, depression, and stress. This approach is useful for parenting stress, mood shifts, and coping with life changes.In sessions Amy emphasizes clear goals and skill-building. She offers short experiments and homework to test new ways of coping between meetings. Together the therapist and client decide whether CBT techniques are a good fit or whether to adjust the plan to match personal needs and preferences.
Online therapy here is designed to be flexible. Video calls let for face-to-face conversation when that works best. Phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging provide alternatives for busy schedules, caregiving duties, or when someone prefers written check-ins. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while fitting it into daily life.
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.
