About Amy
Amy Boggs is a licensed independent social worker with 19 years of experience helping people manage stress, anger, anxiety, and depression. She works with individuals who are coping with life changes, grief, addictions, and self-esteem struggles. Amy aims for straightforward, practical support that helps people feel steadier day to day.
She uses clear, goal-focused conversations to identify what is most troubling and what can change. Sessions often include skills for managing intense feelings, steps to reduce unhelpful thinking, and plans to handle stressful situations.
Background and approach
Amy explains tools in plain language so people can try them between sessions. Amy also supports people facing caregiving strain, chronic illness, adoption and foster care concerns, and aging-related questions. She pays attention to family of origin issues, control problems, and the fallout from separation or infidelity.
Her approach is gentle but direct, offering options rather than judgments. Clients can expect a practical focus on daily coping strategies and problem solving alongside attention to values and meaning. Amy draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques to help people spot patterns and test new ways of responding.
Over time that work often leads to clearer choices and less reactive behavior. She practices in Ohio and holds an LISW credential, which is a licensed independent social worker. Sessions are conducted in English and tailored to each person’s pace and goals.

CBT and practical tools for online care
Amy uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thinking and try small behavior changes. CBT focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and is often used for anxiety, depression, anger, and stress-related problems.Her sessions emphasize teaching concrete skills you can use between meetings, such as relaxation exercises, thought records, and step-by-step behavior plans. The work is collaborative - she and the client decide which techniques fit the person's goals and pace, and they adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful when visual cues and face-to-face interaction matter. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging allow for brief updates, coaching between sessions, or people who prefer a written format. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to try different ways of working until the best fit is found.
