About Amy
Amy Powers is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 17 years of experience. She uses straightforward, practical methods to help people manage stress, anger, anxiety, and relationship struggles. Her style is warm and respectful while staying focused on clear goals.
She primarily uses cognitive behavioral approaches to help people change thoughts and behaviors that cause distress. Amy also blends client-centered listening with solution-focused planning so clients leave sessions with concrete next steps.
Background and approach
When trauma or abuse is part of the story she incorporates trauma-informed tools to address those wounds. Amy has worked with people coping with depression, bipolar mood concerns, obsessive thoughts and panic, as well as grief and the fallout from family conflict. She helps clients untangle patterns like codependency, control issues, and communication breakdowns so daily life and relationships feel more manageable.
Sessions emphasize skills you can use between meetings. Those skills include emotion regulation, mindfulness practices, and problem-solving strategies drawn from Dialectical Behavior Therapy and CBT. Amy frames work as collaborative and practical - clients and therapist set goals together and track progress.
She practices in South Carolina and offers sessions in English. Amy can guide someone through parenting stress, intimacy concerns, career strain, and major life changes with a steady, goal-oriented approach.

How therapeutic approaches shape online care
Amy combines cognitive behavioral techniques with client-centered and mindfulness-based work to address everyday struggles. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thought and behavior patterns that keep problems like anxiety, anger, or panic going and gives concrete strategies to change them. Client-Centered Therapy centers on listening and understanding so clients feel heard while they set the direction of therapy. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices that reduce emotional reactivity and help with stress and mood regulation.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Amy works with each person to pick strategies that match their goals, preferences, and the problems they want to solve. She adapts methods over time so sessions stay focused on progress and practical outcomes.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for deeper conversational work and skill practice, while phone sessions can fit a break at work or be easier when bandwidth is low. Live chat and messaging support quick check-ins, brief coaching, and ongoing skills practice between sessions. These options make it easier to attend regular sessions and apply new skills in daily life.
