About Amy
Amy David is an LCSW who helps people manage anxiety, stress, and mood challenges. She focuses on day-to-day problems like worry, relationship strain, parenting stress, and low self-esteem. Her approach is practical and straightforward so parents can read it quickly and know what to expect.
She uses talk and skill practice to change unhelpful thinking and behavior. Sessions often include small, doable tools you can try between meetings. Amy also pays attention to how early relationships shape current reactions and closeness with others.
Background and approach
Her work covers a wide range of concerns including trauma and abuse, grief, anger, intimacy-related issues, ADHD, and eating or body image struggles. She also supports people dealing with adoption and foster care realities, caregiver stress, fertility worries, and family-of-origin topics. In sessions she mixes techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy with attachment-focused ideas.
She aims to make therapy short-term when that fits, and solution-focused when people want practical next steps. Amy draws on six years of clinical experience as a licensed clinical social worker in North Carolina. People meet with her by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging.

Working with attachment, thinking patterns, and emotion skills online
Amy draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to address worry, mood, and relationship patterns. CBT focuses on noticing and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can reduce anxiety and low mood by testing new ways of thinking. DBT teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills to manage intense feelings and conflict more effectively.Choosing the right approach is a shared process. She will discuss goals and try methods that fit a person’s needs and preferences. Together they track what helps and adjust the plan as progress unfolds so therapy stays focused and useful.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and skill demonstrations. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging make brief check-ins and coaching practical between longer appointments, and they can fit into busy days or caregiving schedules.
