About Amie

Amie Bishop is a licensed counselor offering practical support for people feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or angry. She holds LPC and LCPC credentials and brings 14 years of experience to sessions. Her approach is open-minded and nonjudgmental, and she emphasizes working together to set and reach goals.

She listens first and tailors the work to each person. Amie uses a mix of proven methods rather than one fixed style. That means conversations focus on what matters to the client, whether that is reducing anger, improving sleep, or recovering from trauma.

Her background includes long-term work with people facing addiction, trauma, homelessness, and involvement with the criminal justice system. She also supports issues such as sexual difficulties, intimacy problems, depression, anxiety, grief, and stress. Amie describes her practice as welcoming to people from diverse backgrounds and alternative lifestyles.

Therapy with her is collaborative. Together the client and therapist set clear goals and practical steps to reach them. Sessions may include skills practice, communication tools, and strategies to manage strong emotions like anger.

She offers messaging and live chat or live phone sessions, and typically schedules evening and weekend hours to fit busy lives. Before starting, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to the listed availability.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Client-Centered Therapy centers the client's experience and priorities. Sessions emphasize listening, empathy, and helping people find solutions that fit their life. This approach helps when someone needs support to clarify goals or feel heard.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact. It teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thinking and behaviors, useful for anxiety, anger, and sleep problems. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, focuses on emotion regulation and coping skills for intense feelings and relationship stress.

Choosing the right approach is a team process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or has not worked before. Together they adjust methods as progress is made so the work stays relevant and practical.

Amie offers messaging, live chat, and live phone sessions as part of her practice; confirm current session options before booking if you need a specific format. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and offer options that avoid travel time. These factors often help people maintain momentum and practice new skills between meetings.
