About Amy

Amy Boggs is an Ohio licensed independent social worker (LISW) with 19 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and major life changes, and lists social anxiety and isolation among her areas of focus. Amy also supports those dealing with grief, parenting strain, relationship problems, addiction concerns, and issues around self-esteem and anger.

Her style is direct and practical. Sessions focus on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a main approach she uses to help people notice patterns and try manageable changes between meetings.

Amy often works with people facing long-term caregiving demands, chronic illness, and aging-related stress. She also addresses adoption and foster care themes, family of origin concerns, and challenges linked to divorce or infidelity. She lists LGBT concerns and compassion fatigue among her areas of practice as well.

In sessions she talks through coping strategies, problem-solving steps, and simple skills to reduce overwhelm. Meetings include time to set realistic goals and plan actions for the week. Progress is reviewed in plain terms so people can see what helps.

Amy practices in Ohio and provides counseling in English. People who want to start are asked to use the site's online matching process to schedule a first session and choose their subscription plan.

Using CBT Online and Practical Approaches

Amy primarily uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, an approach that helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and try small changes in how they act. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and phobias like social anxiety by breaking problems into clear steps and practicing new responses.

The therapist may also integrate straightforward problem-solving methods to address caregiving stress, relationship concerns, or coping with chronic illness. These methods focus on concrete actions and planning rather than long abstract discussions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Amy will review goals, symptoms, and preferences with each person and suggest ways of working together. The choice of techniques is collaborative and adjusted as progress and needs become clearer.

Confirm current session formats before booking since formats are not specified in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Talk with the therapist during the matching process to choose the session style that fits daily routines and practical constraints.
