About Amelia
Amelia Flower is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida with ten years of clinical experience. She works with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem, depression, addictions, grief, relationship concerns, bipolar disorder, and coping with life changes, including social anxiety and phobia.
She earned a master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling from Walden University in 2014 and holds the Florida LMHC credential. Much of her work has been with adults in correctional settings, where she managed crises, performed risk assessments, and provided medication education for people experiencing psychosis.
Her clinical practice uses client-centered methods alongside cognitive behavioral techniques. She draws on dialectical behavior approaches and mindfulness to teach grounding skills for acute distress and to help identify triggers that maintain anxiety and depressive symptoms.
In sessions she uses motivational interviewing to build rapport and to encourage honest reflection. She also offers conflict-resolution and anger management strategies developed from her experience in correctional care. These tools are used to address impulsivity, isolation, paranoia, and personality-related concerns.
Amelia notes a pragmatic focus: setting goals, mapping small steps, and practicing new coping skills between meetings. She provides online messaging and chat options and asks prospective clients to confirm the available session formats before scheduling.
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the client's lead to identify what matters most. It helps when someone feels unsure about speaking up or figuring out next steps, because the therapist helps reflect back what the client says and clarifies priorities.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the thoughts and behaviors that keep anxiety and panic going. Online work can involve short written exercises, tracking triggers, and practicing small behavior changes between messages or chat check-ins.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides skills for managing strong emotions and reducing impulsive behavior. Mindfulness techniques used in DBT can be taught through brief guided practices and simple grounding instructions in messages.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, symptoms, and preferences and help decide which methods to try first. That choice can change over time based on what helps most.
This profile indicates chat and messaging as session formats, so confirm the exact options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit care into a busy day, allow short focused check-ins, and let clients practice skills in between contacts. Licensed professionals often use written exchanges to review homework, introduce coping strategies, and follow progress without requiring travel.
