About Amy
Amy Woodward is a licensed counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, anger, and trauma. She brings 11 years of clinical experience and works with people on relationship strain, sleep trouble, substance concerns, and self-esteem struggles. Amy uses straightforward, practical methods that aim for useful change.
Sessions are collaborative and focused on skills you can try between meetings. She listens for what matters most to each person and sets small, achievable goals together.
Background and approach
Her work draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and on acceptance and commitment ideas to clarify values and take actions that matter. Mindfulness and dialectical strategies are added when emotional regulation or distress tolerance are priorities. Client-centered methods shape sessions so people feel heard and understood.
Amy holds the Licensed Professional Counselor credential (LPC) and the Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor credential (LCMHC). She practices in Vermont and has experience helping people with grief, career stress, ADHD-related challenges, and compassion fatigue. Practical concerns like sleep, intimacy-related issues, and coping with life changes are addressed through tailored plans.
For people managing addiction or co-occurring problems, she combines motivational interviewing concepts with behavior-focused tools. The work is steady and paced to each person's readiness. She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging for flexible care.
International clients who speak English may also work with her through online formats.

Therapeutic approaches and online care options
Amy commonly blends acceptance and commitment therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy in her online work. Acceptance and commitment therapy helps people clarify what matters to them and take steps toward those values even when difficult thoughts or feelings appear. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors to reduce distress and improve daily functioning.She frames approach selection as a collaborative process. Together with each person she assesses goals, symptoms, and preferences and then chooses techniques that match those needs. That process can shift over time as goals change or new challenges arise.
Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful for fuller interaction and visual cues, phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging can suit quick check-ins or people who prefer typing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, travel, or varied schedules and give practical flexibility for ongoing support.
