About Amy

Amy Krohn is a licensed professional counselor who supports people facing difficult life moments. She uses practical, evidence-based strategies to help with stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, and other struggles. Amy works in Louisiana and brings nine years of clinical experience to her work.

She meets people where they are and focuses on clear steps forward. Amy favors straightforward, compassionate conversations. She helps clients name what’s happening, learn coping skills, and practice small changes that add up.

Background and approach

Therapy sessions are collaborative; she listens first and then offers tools drawn from proven methods. People often work on issues such as mood disorders, anger, self-esteem, and ADHD-related challenges. Her practice also addresses family-related concerns and parenting stress.

Amy pays attention to complicated situations like blended family dynamics, caregiver strain, chronic illness, and co-occurring substance use. She assists with communication problems, codependency, infidelity, and other relationship rifts. Therapeutic techniques include client-centered work, cognitive behavioral methods, dialectical behavior skills, mindfulness, and Imago relationship ideas.

These approaches are used to build skills for emotional regulation, healthier interactions, and clearer thinking. Amy aims for practical gains rather than jargon-filled sessions. She offers multiple online formats so people can choose what fits their life.

Sessions are conducted in English and she accepts international clients. Getting started involves a short questionnaire and scheduling a first session.

Online approaches that meet practical family needs

Amy often uses client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy in online sessions. Client-centered therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the person leads the conversation and the therapist reflects and supports. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying small behavior changes to reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood.

She also uses dialectical behavior therapy skills when emotional regulation is a primary concern. DBT techniques teach concrete tools for managing intense feelings, improving tolerance for distress, and keeping relationships steadier. These methods are applied to issues such as stress, anger, mood swings, and difficulties with impulsivity.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Amy will discuss options, try techniques together, and adjust based on what helps most. Goals, preferences, and everyday routines all shape the plan so therapy fits the client’s life.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. This flexibility makes it easier to fit sessions around parenting, work, and caregiving responsibilities. It also lets people practice skills between sessions and check in in ways that work for them.

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.
