About Aimee
Aimee Gandy is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Florida who helps people facing stress, anxiety, ADHD, trauma, grief, parenting strain, addictions, relationship and intimacy concerns, eating issues, anger, low self-esteem, career changes, depression, and compassion fatigue. She brings a calm, respectful presence and aims to make therapy feel approachable for worried parents and busy adults.
Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer routines rather than jargon. Gandy uses a mix of methods to match each person’s needs.
Background and approach
She often draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thinking and make concrete changes. Narrative approaches are used to help people reframe their stories and see new possibilities. Her background includes many years working in child welfare and with people affected by abuse and neglect, and she currently works with the adoption population.
She has also worked with older adults in home settings, which shaped her attention to real-life tasks and supports. Clients can expect a warm, nonjudgmental style. Gandy starts where each person is and adapts the plan as progress is made.
She uses straightforward talk, goal-setting, and small, achievable steps to build momentum. Over six years in counseling practice, she has focused on helping people find practical coping tools and rebuild confidence after difficult experiences. Her work prioritizes respect, steady support, and realistic strategies that fit everyday life.
How therapeutic approaches work online
Aimee commonly uses client-centered work and cognitive behavioral therapy in sessions. Client-centered work means the therapist listens closely and follows the client’s lead to build trust and identify what matters most. This approach helps when someone needs steady support and practical problem solving. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing small behavior changes to reduce anxiety or improve routines; it is useful for worries, low mood, and attention-related struggles.She also draws on motivational interviewing when people want help finding motivation or making changes. This approach uses open questions and reflective listening to help someone discover their own reasons for change and set realistic next steps. Together, these methods are chosen collaboratively so the plan matches goals and preferences rather than assuming one fixed method.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and screen-sharing for worksheets. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is low or a quieter setting is needed. Live chat and text messaging work well for brief check-ins, coaching-style support, or when scheduling makes shorter contact more practical. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into a busy life.
