Aimee Lighty

Aimee Lighty is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who focuses on practical help for stress, anxiety, depression, and anger. She aims to make sessions productive and to help people move from talking to doing. Her style is warm and supportive, and she can be direct when working through difficult feelings.

With 15 years of experience, she uses clear, solution-minded approaches to tackle everyday problems. She helps clients break down patterns that affect relationships, work, sleep, and self-worth. Sessions typically focus on small, manageable changes that add up over time.

She combines client-centered care with cognitive tools and solution-focused steps. That means listening to what matters most, challenging unhelpful thoughts, and trying concrete strategies between meetings. The result is a plan people can use in their daily life.

Aimee also brings attention to trauma, addictions, bipolar mood concerns, ADHD, and issues affecting veterans and armed forces. She supports people dealing with parenting strain, family conflict, LGBT concerns, eating and sleeping problems, and self-harm thoughts by helping them identify practical next steps.

Clients find that sessions aim for realistic goals and steady progress. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to availability. She practices in Pennsylvania and offers services in English.

How Aimee’s approaches translate to online therapy

Aimee uses client-centered work and cognitive behavioral techniques to help people focus on what matters and change unhelpful thoughts. Client-centered therapy emphasizes understanding each person’s perspective and building on their strengths. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at connections between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to reduce anxiety, anger, and mood symptoms.

She also applies solution-focused therapy ideas to set small, achievable goals in a short time. That approach concentrates on what is already working and on simple steps to create forward movement. Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process; the therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then try methods that fit their needs.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the available session options before booking since formats are not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, let people check in between commitments, and allow for shorter or more focused meetings when needed. Licensed professionals can use these approaches effectively in remote sessions, adapting tools and homework to the person’s routine.
