About Amy
Amy Iannitelli is a licensed mental health counselor with 23 years of experience based in Florida. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, trauma, and parenting challenges. Amy uses practical, evidence-based methods and a warm, direct style to guide people through difficult transitions.
She listens first, then tailors a plan that fits each person's needs. Sessions are focused on clear goals and small, doable steps. Amy draws from approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy and trauma-focused techniques to reduce symptoms and build coping skills.
Background and approach
Her work covers a wide range of concerns including depression, grief, relationship and intimacy issues, anger, self-esteem, and career stress. She also addresses more specific areas such as adoption and foster care, fertility-related difficulties, and eating and body image struggles. Amy integrates skills-based work with trauma processing when needed.
People who come to her can expect a collaborative, straightforward process. She helps identify patterns that keep problems going and teaches tools to change them. Over time the focus shifts from managing crises to strengthening resilience and planning for the future.
Amy offers services to English-speaking clients in Florida and accepts international clients. Session formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to match different preferences and schedules.
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Amy commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and trauma-focused approaches to guide online work. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing behaviors to reduce anxiety and depression. Trauma-focused methods help process painful memories and reduce their hold on daily life.She also draws on client-centered principles, which prioritize listening, empathy, and adapting work to each person's goals. Finding the right approach is part of the early sessions. The therapist and client collaborate to choose methods that fit the client's needs, goals, and comfort level, and they adjust the plan as progress unfolds.
Online therapy with Amy is available through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, reduce travel time, and maintain continuity during life changes. Licensed professionals can use these formats to teach coping skills, guide trauma processing, and support ongoing problem solving in ways that match a client's routine and preferences.
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.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
Concrete skills for riding out strong emotion, tolerating distress, and handling relationships without things escalating. The skills are practised in daily life, so between-session support by message or phone fits naturally.
