About Amy

Amy Pullen is an LMHC licensed in Indiana with seven years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, and related challenges. She also addresses mood concerns like depression and bipolar symptoms and helps with issues such as self-esteem, parenting strain, anger, and ADHD.

Amy uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and treats each person as the expert on their life. She looks for strengths that can help when things feel overwhelming. The first contact is described as a practical step - a short session to get oriented and name the most pressing concerns.

In sessions she focuses on clear goals and small, manageable steps. Conversations cover patterns that keep problems going, and practical skills to cope with anxiety, mood shifts, and family conflict. She helps people try out new ways of communicating and managing difficult emotions.

Amy also works with issues related to adoption and foster care, attachment questions, autism and Asperger syndrome matters, blended family challenges, and co-occurring problems. Other areas she addresses include codependency, communication problems, control issues, dissociation, divorce and separation, domestic violence, guilt and shame, hoarding, and impulsivity.

Her approach emphasizes collaboration and steady progress. People can expect straightforward conversations about what is happening now, what has helped before, and what practical next steps might look like.

How evidence-based techniques translate to online sessions

Amy uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques aimed at practical change. Cognitive-based strategies help identify unhelpful thinking patterns and teach skills to manage anxiety and mood shifts. Behavioral methods focus on measurable steps people can try between sessions to reduce avoidance and build confidence.

She also draws on interpersonal and skills-focused work to address relationship and family concerns, helping people practice clearer communication and emotion regulation. Deciding which techniques to use is collaborative - the therapist and client review goals and try approaches that match the client’s needs and preferences.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, shorten travel time, and allow check-ins that align with work or caregiving schedules. Some formats may be simpler when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed; confirm what is offered and choose what fits day-to-day life best.
