About Amy

Amy Swetnam is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas with 36 years of experience supporting people through life's transitions. She has long been drawn to working with others and has spent decades helping individuals build practical coping skills, clarify priorities, and regain a sense of agency. As an LPC, a credential that indicates state licensure to provide professional mental health counseling, she emphasizes empowerment and teaching clients tools they can use outside of sessions.

She approaches each person with dignity, respect, and acceptance, and places a high value on forming a strong therapeutic alliance to guide collaborative planning and action. Amy prefers clear, goal-oriented work that blends compassion with practical strategies, and she encourages clients to play an active role in shaping their plan of care. Her practice centers on partnering with people to create realistic, achievable steps toward meaningful change, and she welcomes conversations about how best to move forward together.

Approaches for Effective Online Therapeutic Work

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a practical, skills-based approach that helps people identify unhelpful thinking and patterns, then replace them with more balanced thoughts and behaviors. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. Solution-Focused Therapy centers on clients' strengths and goals, emphasizing short-term, actionable steps to create change and build momentum toward desired outcomes. Trauma-Focused Therapy addresses the effects of traumatic experiences by helping clients process memories, reduce symptoms, and develop coping strategies tailored to trauma recovery.

Amy Swetnam works collaboratively with each person to determine which approaches are the best match for their needs, goals, and preferences. She views finding the right method as an evolving part of the therapeutic relationship and partners with clients to adjust strategies as progress unfolds.

Online therapy with Amy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, fit sessions into busy lives, and access support from familiar surroundings while working toward meaningful change.
