About Annmarie

Annmarie Amlick is a licensed mental health counselor with more than 15 years of experience. She focuses on helping people coping with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, parenting concerns, and other life changes. She works in New York and offers practical, down-to-earth support for people who want clearer thinking and steadier moods.

Annmarie trained in psychology and holds both a bachelor’s and a master’s degree from Loyola University in Maryland.

Background and approach

She carries the LMHC credential - Licensed Mental Health Counselor - and is registered in New York (NY LMHC 003855). Her background includes work across a range of clinical settings, so she has seen many different situations and life stages. Her style blends a client-centered attitude with psychodynamic roots and tools from cognitive behavioral therapy.

That means she listens first, helps people understand patterns from the past, and then uses practical steps to shift unhelpful thoughts and habits. Sessions aim to be nonjudgmental and focused on what the client wants to change. In practice she helps people notice the thoughts and feelings that keep them stuck, and then tries small, manageable changes to break those cycles.

She pays attention to mood disorders such as bipolar and depression, as well as addictions, trauma, grief, self-esteem, and intimacy issues. Therapy with Annmarie is tailored to each person. Conversations guide goals, and the mix of listening, insight work, and behavioral strategies is adjusted to match what helps most.

Approaches and online care that fit your life

Annmarie uses client-centered work that starts by listening to what matters most to the person in front of her. This approach focuses on the client’s goals and values, and guides conversations in a respectful, nonjudgmental way.

She also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy or CBT, which looks at the connections between thoughts, feelings, and actions. CBT helps people try concrete strategies to reduce anxiety, change unhelpful thinking, and build new habits that feel manageable day to day.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process. She collaborates with each person to figure out which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and adjusts the balance of listening, insight work, and practical exercises over time.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet those goals. Sessions can happen by video calls for face-to-face conversation, by phone if that is easier, or through live chat and text-based messaging for shorter check-ins and ongoing support. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to keep continuity when life gets hectic.

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.

Psychodynamic Therapy

Exploring how earlier relationships and patterns still shape the present, often over a longer stretch of time. It relies on conversation and reflection rather than exercises.
