About Amie

Amie Bishop is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) with 14 years of experience. She practices in Florida and works with people coping with stress, anxiety, addiction, relationship challenges, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy concerns, sleeping problems, parenting issues, anger, low self-esteem, career questions, bipolar mood issues, and codependency.

She uses an eclectic mix of approaches rather than a single method. Sessions focus on clear goals, improved communication, and practical steps people can try between meetings. Amie describes counseling as a team effort where therapist and client plan realistic steps toward change.

Her background includes work with people affected by substance use, trauma, natural or human-caused disasters, and homelessness. She also notes experience with alternative sexual lifestyles and sexual functioning concerns. That experience shapes how she talks about intimacy, boundaries, and relationship patterns without judgment.

In sessions she combines client-centered listening with tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy when helpful. She also draws on emotionally focused ideas and relationship work informed by the Gottman method for couples or relationship-focused concerns. The tone is direct and practical, with attention to setting attainable goals.

Amie welcomes people from diverse backgrounds and offers support for those wrestling with codependency, control issues, attachment questions, and complicated grief. Before booking, clients should confirm current session options and times to match their needs.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Client-centered therapy starts by listening to what matters most to the person and using that to guide change. It helps people who feel lost in relationships or struggle to speak up by focusing on direct, respectful listening and working together on next steps.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. It teaches practical strategies to test unhelpful thoughts, reduce anxiety, and change patterns like people-pleasing or avoidance. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds skills for managing strong emotions, improving distress tolerance, and building better interpersonal boundaries, which can be useful for people who have intense reactions in relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will help decide what to try first based on the client’s goals, needs, and what feels doable. This is a collaborative process rather than a fixed prescription.

Confirm the specific online session options before booking since formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and remove travel time so a person can use an hour more flexibly. Therapists generally tailor session pacing and homework to fit everyday life and the client’s schedule.
