About Amy

Dr. Amy Still is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in North Carolina with five years of professional experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem, depression, addictions, parenting challenges, and life transitions. She also addresses issues such as guilt and shame, forgiveness, body image, and isolation.

Dr. Still approaches therapy by recognizing each person as the expert of their own story. She focuses on practical strengths people already have and uses those strengths to address what gets in the way of daily life. Sessions are straightforward and centered on the client’s goals. She emphasizes small, manageable steps rather than large, abstract plans.

She helps clients talk through past hurts and current patterns that fuel guilt and shame. Conversations often include looking at choices and their impacts, learning new ways to respond to difficult emotions, and practicing skills for handling stress and anger. For parenting concerns she supports parents with concrete problem solving and coping strategies.

Her background includes work with trauma, panic, and addiction-related concerns. That experience informs how she notices safety, pacing, and how to adjust steps when things feel overwhelming. She draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide sessions without forcing a single method.

People who choose Dr. Still often want clear, practical help for everyday problems. To get started they complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How evidence-based approaches are used in online sessions

Dr. Still uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on practical skills and processing difficult experiences. One approach involves working on emotion regulation and stress management through step-by-step practice. That helps people who struggle with panic, anxiety, or strong anger to try new ways of responding in daily life.

Another common strand in her work is trauma-informed care that pays attention to pacing and safety. This means addressing traumatic memories or past abuse at a speed the client can manage while building coping skills to reduce overwhelm.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will talk with the client about problems, goals, and preferences and then choose or combine techniques that fit. Clients and the therapist make decisions collaboratively, adjusting methods as needed over time.

The original biography does not specify which online session formats are used, so confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, avoid travel, or check in during a shorter break. Some people prefer a video meeting to work face-to-face, while others choose phone visits for a briefer check-in or when bandwidth is limited. Licensed professionals can adapt pacing and homework to suit the format and the client’s daily routine.
