About Amy Phelps

Amy Phelps is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and board-certified clinical supervisor who brings 18 years of clinical experience to her practice. She blends evidence-based techniques with a person-centered, trauma-informed stance, drawing on training in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, attachment-focused work, client-centered care, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to tailor treatment to each person's needs. Her clinical supervision credential reflects formal training to mentor and oversee other clinicians, and she has expanded her work into leadership roles that support treatment teams and community programs.

Amy emphasizes collaboration, transparency, and accountability as core elements of lasting change. She values practical, research-informed approaches while also respecting clinical intuition and the individual story each person brings. Many former clients have noted that she is attentive, nurturing, flexible, knowledgeable, and direct in her communication, and she uses that directness to foster healthy attachment and self-discovery.

An element of her practice is lived experience in recovery; she marked eleven years of sobriety in November 2025 and draws on that background when supporting others who face substance use and related challenges. Her scope includes work with stress and anxiety, relationships and attachment issues, trauma and abuse, addictions and recovery, eating and body-image concerns, depression, grief, family and parenting dynamics, ADHD, bipolar and mood concerns, intimacy and sexual issues, coping with life changes, and professional coaching and compassion fatigue. Amy aims to customize care through a relaxed scheduling structure and focused caseloads so that each person receives thoughtful, individualized attention.

Therapeutic Approaches Delivered Remotely

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most to them and build a life guided by those values. It emphasizes openness to internal experience and practical action steps, often helping with anxiety, stress, and difficulty making changes. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on relational patterns and emotional bonds formed over a lifetime, helping individuals and couples understand how early relationships shape current connection, trust, and intimacy. Client-Centered Therapy prioritizes empathy, respect, and unconditional positive regard from the therapist, creating a supportive environment where clients can explore identity, self-esteem, and personal goals at their own pace.

Amy approaches treatment as a collaborative process - finding the right therapeutic fit is part of the work. She partners with clients to assess needs, preferences, and goals, then draws from these approaches to design an individualized plan that evolves as progress is made.

Online sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging expand access to therapy and make it easier to fit care into busy lives. These options offer flexibility in scheduling, the ability to work from familiar surroundings, and multiple ways to communicate so clients can choose the format that best supports their engagement and comfort with the therapeutic process.
