About Amy
Dr. Amy Still is a licensed clinical social worker in North Carolina with five years of professional experience. She helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, anger, addictions, and issues around self-esteem.
She meets clients where they are and encourages small steps toward relief and change. Her work treats trauma and abuse with steady, practical attention. She supports people facing panic attacks, post-traumatic stress, and social anxiety by focusing on usable strategies rather than jargon.
Background and approach
She also helps those coping with life changes, parenting strain, adoption and foster care concerns, and women's issues. Amy pays attention to how shame, guilt, and isolation affect everyday life. She talks with clients about control issues, impulsivity, communication problems, and rebuilding self-love after hard experiences.
Body image and forgiveness are also topics she can address in sessions. Sessions look at what is realistic for each person. Amy emphasizes strengths and skill-building so clients can try changes between meetings.
She encourages people to notice small improvements and to use those as momentum for larger shifts. Her approach is straightforward and collaborative. She invites clients to be part of planning their goals and to pace the work to fit their life.
For many, that makes the path through anxiety and stress feel more manageable.
How evidence-based approaches translate to online care
Many evidence-based techniques focus on skills you can practice between sessions. For example, approaches that emphasize structured skill-building teach breathing and grounding tools for panic and anxiety, and show how to break big problems into manageable steps. These methods suit people who want clear, practical ways to reduce anxious symptoms and handle stress.Another common approach centers on processing trauma through careful, paced conversations. That work helps people make sense of past events and reduce their hold on daily life by naming reactions and learning new coping patterns. It tends to help those who experience post-traumatic stress, panic attacks, or ongoing effects of abuse.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss options, listen to the client’s goals, and adjust techniques as needed. Together they decide which methods fit the person's needs, pace, and preferences rather than imposing a single path.
Online therapy offers practical benefits for this kind of work. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for detailed skill coaching and conversation. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is low or when being on camera feels difficult. Live chat and text-based messaging make brief check-ins and ongoing support possible between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep progress moving forward.
