About Amy
Amy Gatch is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, parenting strain, relationship difficulties, and ADHD-related challenges. She uses clear, practical techniques and listens closely to understand what each person needs. Her approach is calm and focused on small, doable steps that fit daily life.
She brings 16 years of clinical experience and a background that includes work in schools and therapy settings. That mix gives her a practical view of how routines, supports, and skills shape daily functioning.
Background and approach
She draws on methods that help people change unhelpful thinking and build workable strategies for immediate problems. In sessions she spends time learning about your priorities and creating short-term goals. Conversations are straightforward and aimed at solutions you can try between meetings.
She helps people break big problems into smaller tasks and track progress over time. Amy also supports caregivers and people navigating autism spectrum challenges, intellectual disability, and impulsivity by focusing on communication and daily routines. She pays attention to how family roles and responsibilities affect stress and coping.
Her background in both clinical and school settings helps when planning practical changes that fit home and work life. She holds the Licensed Clinical Social Worker credential and the Licensed Independent Social Worker certified prescriber credential in the Carolinas. Sessions are offered in English and delivered online by video, phone, chat, or messaging.
How these approaches translate to online care
Amy uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy in ways that fit online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks down problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and helps you try small experiments to change unhelpful patterns. It’s useful for anxiety, depression, anger, and ADHD-related routines. Solution-Focused Therapy centers on what you want to see change and looks for practical steps that build on your strengths and past successes.Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Amy will talk with you about your goals and preferences and then suggest methods to try. The plan can change as you learn what works; she helps monitor progress and adjusts strategies together with you.
Online sessions give flexible ways to meet. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and screen-sharing for worksheets. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or for quick check-ins. Live chat and text messaging work well for brief updates, tracking small tasks, and keeping momentum between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, school, and family schedules while still focusing on practical change.
