About Bahiyya
Bahiyya Amh-Shere is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Georgia who focuses on helping people manage stress and anxiety. She draws on ten years of clinical experience to guide clients through hard moments and life transitions. Her approach centers on listening and building a practical plan that fits each person’s needs.
She creates a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can talk about trauma, abuse, or depression. Conversations often focus on what feels most urgent - coping strategies, relief from overwhelming feelings, and ways to rebuild confidence.
Background and approach
Sessions move at a steady, practical pace so clients leave with steps they can use between meetings. Bahiyya combines client-centered work with cognitive behavioral techniques. That means she pays attention to each person’s perspective while also helping them notice unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors.
Together they test different ways of thinking and acting to reduce anxiety and improve mood. She also supports people dealing with attachment or abandonment concerns, caregiver stress, workplace problems, guilt, shame, and issues around self-love and forgiveness. Midlife challenges and questions about life purpose are addressed with straightforward, goal-oriented conversations.
Her style is supportive and empowering. She helps people set realistic goals, practice new skills, and track small changes over time. Those ready to start are invited to take a simple matching step and schedule a first session.
How client-centered and CBT work online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on empathetic listening and understanding a person’s experience. The therapist follows your lead, reflects what you say, and helps you clarify goals and values so you feel heard and understood.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. It uses short exercises and experiments to spot unhelpful thinking and replace it with more helpful habits, which can ease anxiety and low mood.
Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with you about your goals and preferences and then try methods that fit your needs. Adjustments happen over time based on what helps you make progress.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions let you have a full conversation similar to an in-person meeting. Phone sessions require less bandwidth and can work well for a shorter check-in. Live chat and messaging are useful for quick reflections, ongoing support between sessions, or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep practicing skills between meetings.
