About Amy

Amy Brant is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in Indiana with 30 years of experience. She works with people who face stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, depression, and difficulties such as trauma, grief, addiction, and parenting strain. Amy also addresses issues like self-esteem, anger, career concerns, and attention-related challenges.

Amy began her career in 1998 as a teacher for students with special needs and later served as a public school guidance counselor. She earned her LMFT as she shifted into full-time therapy work in 2011. That background in schools shapes the clear, practical way she talks about problems and solutions.

Her approach adapts to what each person needs. Some clients use short, solution-focused work to tackle a single problem. Others choose a more collaborative, educational course of sessions to learn new skills and habits.

She uses several well-known methods including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy to guide conversations and practice. Amy aims to help people look at patterns, try different responses, and plan steps they can take between sessions.

Sessions typically involve talking through current concerns, looking at how past experiences affect present choices, and practicing skills for emotional regulation and communication. She supports people dealing with grief, trauma, intimacy questions, body-image concerns, chronic illness stress, codependency, dissociation, and a range of other life challenges.

People who prefer clear explanations and practical steps will find her style straightforward and goal-focused. The therapist encourages checking session options and scheduling details before booking to confirm what will work best.

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions

Amy commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. ACT focuses on clarifying values and taking committed action even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present, which can help with anxiety and avoidance. CBT looks at thought patterns and behaviors, teaching practical strategies to reduce anxious reactions and change unhelpful habits.

She also draws on Attachment-Based and Client-Centered ideas to keep conversations focused on relationship patterns and the client's own perspective. Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to identify goals and then try approaches that fit those goals and preferences, adjusting as needed.

Confirm the current session formats before booking so you know what is offered. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter or more frequent check-ins, and reduce travel time. It also lets people choose sessions that match their energy that day, such as a phone call when video feels like too much or a video meeting when visual cues help the conversation. If you want clarity on how sessions are arranged, check the available options before scheduling.
