About Amy
Amy Morantes is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Florida with 10 years of experience. She works with people who are managing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, parenting strain, grief, addiction, trauma and codependency concerns. She helps people name problems and take practical steps forward.
Amy uses a client-centered style that focuses on a person's strengths. She listens for what matters most and helps set clear, achievable goals. Sessions often include practical tools drawn from cognitive behavioral ideas and solution-focused methods to change unhelpful patterns and build new habits.
Her approach also brings in mindfulness practices to reduce intense emotions and improve attention to the present moment. Motivational interviewing shows up when someone needs help finding reasons and energy to make a change. Amy pays attention to how relationships and systems influence current stressors and choices.
In sessions she breaks bigger problems into manageable tasks. That can mean small experiments between meetings, communication scripts to try with others, or tracking thoughts that keep a person stuck. Progress is measured by concrete steps toward the goals a person sets.
Amy works in Florida and conducts sessions in English. She supports people who want straightforward, practical therapy focused on day-to-day coping and clearer boundaries. To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial meeting.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Amy commonly uses Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Mindfulness Therapy in her practice. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, reflecting what matters to the person, and helping them set their own goals. CBT looks at the thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and offers practical exercises to try between sessions. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase focus.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Amy will discuss goals, preferences and what has or hasn't worked before. Together the therapist and client decide which methods to try and adjust them as progress is made.

Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Licensed professionals often adapt exercises, homework and pacing to fit remote sessions so therapy can be practical and actionable within everyday life.
