About Amy
Amy David is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in North Carolina who helps people manage anger alongside stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and relationship or intimacy concerns. She also supports those coping with trauma and abuse, parenting and family challenges, self-esteem struggles, and attention-related issues. Amy uses straightforward, practical work to help people feel more in control and less overwhelmed.
Amy blends cognitive behavioral ideas with attachment-based perspectives and skills from dialectical behavior therapy.
Background and approach
In sessions she helps people spot unhelpful thoughts, build better emotion-regulation skills, and try small changes that lead to steadier reactions. She emphasizes learning skills that can be used day to day, not just talked about. Her approach is collaborative.
Amy listens first, then helps you set clear, achievable goals. She uses short exercises and real-life practice between sessions to build new habits and reduce outbursts or reactivity over time. With six years of clinical experience as an LCSW, Amy draws on work with people dealing with family conflict, adoption and foster care questions, caregiver stress, body image concerns, and mood disorders.
She also has experience related to domestic violence and obsessive-compulsive issues. Sessions are offered in English and are available through video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Amy aims to make therapy practical, accessible, and useful for everyday life.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current connections and emotional reactions. Online sessions can help people notice patterns in relationships and try new ways of relating that feel safer and more steady.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. In remote sessions this often means identifying unhelpful thoughts, testing them, and practicing small behavior changes between meetings to reduce anger and anxiety.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, teaches concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication. Those skills are practiced in session and as real-time tools people can use when they feel overwhelmed.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose which methods fit their goals and preferences. This means trying techniques, adjusting what is or isn't helpful, and keeping goals practical and specific.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and skill coaching. Phone calls require less bandwidth and can fit into a work break. Live chat and text messaging allow brief check-ins, quick skill reminders, and ongoing support between sessions.
