About Amy
Amy Frisch is a licensed clinical social worker with 25 years of experience based in New York. She holds the LCSW-R and the LISW-CP and focuses on helping people who are feeling anxious, stressed, or stuck. Amy speaks English and accepts international clients for online work.
Amy listens first and then helps people name what feels off in their daily life. She often supports clients coping with grief, low mood, and low self-esteem.
Background and approach
She also helps people facing life changes and those exploring life purpose or motivation. Sessions are practical and straightforward. Amy will tailor conversations and plans to each person's needs.
She emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion while helping people try new ways of handling difficult moments. Her approach balances short-term problem solving with attention to longer personal goals. Over time she helps clients build skills to manage stress and anxiety and to increase confidence.
Amy aims to make each step toward change feel manageable and realistic. To begin, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and then schedules sessions based on therapist availability. Sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
Approaches and online sessions that fit your life
Amy uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage anxiety and mood concerns. One common approach focuses on learning practical coping skills to reduce daily stress and interrupt anxious thoughts. These skills are taught through guided conversation and in-session practice to make them usable between meetings.Another approach emphasizes working through grief and loss by creating space to tell your story and develop new routines. This work helps people move forward while honoring what they have lost and learning ways to cope with painful emotions.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Amy will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and life demands, and then adapt methods that fit. She checks in regularly to adjust the plan if something isn’t working.
Online therapy offers flexibility with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful for longer, in-depth sessions; phone calls can work when bandwidth is limited or a quieter voice check-in is needed; chat and messaging let people share updates between sessions or fit a short check-in into a busy day. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, family, and travel.
