More about Amy
- 15 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW-C
I am a a licensed certified social worker - clinical in Maryland with over 15 years experience. I received my Bachelor's in Social Work and my Master's in Social Work from Delaware State University. I have experience working in a variety of settings including medical social work (including hospital, hospice, oncology and home health), geriatric settings (nursing homes and assisted livings), substance abuse treatment centers, and residential programs for adults. I have experience helping clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, grief, trauma, caregiver fatigue, family conflict, and parenting concerns.
I believe in the importance of the therapeutic relationship. I believe in that all clients should be treated with dignity, respect and without judgement. I utilize motivational interviewing, CBT, DBT, mindfulness, solution-focused therapy, and client-centered therapy. I believe in a strengths based approach.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
