About Amy

Amy Sherman is a Florida LMHC (Licensed Mental Health Counselor) with 21 years of experience helping adults manage stress, anxiety, anger, relationship concerns, and life transitions. She works with people facing grief, trauma and abuse, addiction, depression, self-esteem struggles, and challenges around intimacy and parenting.

Amy uses straightforward, skills-based work to help people notice patterns and try different responses. She draws on client-centered listening, cognitive-behavioral tools, emotionally-focused ideas, hypnotherapy, and mindfulness practices to address what’s happening now. Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer communication rather than labels or long explanations.

Her background includes a master’s degree in counseling and psychology from Vermont College and long experience with anger management, substance and domestic abuse issues, and midlife concerns. Amy describes her approach as respectful and direct, helping people set clear goals and take steady steps toward them.

In practice she helps people untangle communication problems, rebuild self-esteem, and cope with sudden changes such as divorce, loss, or disaster. She also supports work on forgiveness, life purpose, and recovering from post-traumatic stress.

Sessions are conducted in English and are offered from her Florida practice. Before booking, readers should confirm current session formats and scheduling details through the site’s matching process.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Amy commonly combines client-centered work with cognitive-behavioral techniques and mindfulness in sessions. Client-centered work means listening carefully and helping a person set their own goals. Cognitive-behavioral techniques look at thoughts and behaviors to find small changes that reduce anger, anxiety, or stress. Mindfulness practices teach simple attention skills that can lower reactivity and help with ongoing coping.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to pick methods that fit their goals and daily life. That might mean focusing on communication skills one week and practicing grounding or thought‑reframing the next, depending on what helps most.

The listing does not specify session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people choose online sessions to fit therapy into work breaks, avoid travel time, reduce screen time by using audio only, or make shorter check-ins easier to schedule. Amy’s clinical approaches lend themselves to clear, practical exercises that translate well to online appointments, and she will work with clients to find timing and formats that suit everyday routines.
