About Amy

Amy Verhoeven is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Michigan. She draws on five years of clinical experience to help people manage stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, and depression. Amy speaks plainly and offers steady support for those coping with life changes and day-to-day overwhelm.

Amy keeps conversations respectful and caring. She works with each person to shape sessions around their needs and goals rather than following a one-size-fits-all script.

Background and approach

That can mean focusing on practical steps for motivation and confidence, or learning ways to handle panic and social anxiety. ADHD is one of the concerns she lists, and she helps people living with attention differences find strategies that fit their routines. Sessions are collaborative and goal-oriented.

Amy will listen first, then suggest small changes to try between meetings. She aims to make long-term progress feel manageable by breaking goals into concrete tasks and checking in on what works. Amy also addresses attachment and abandonment concerns, caregiver stress, impulsivity, and feelings of isolation.

She invites people to explore life purpose and self-love while building everyday coping skills. Her approach is straightforward and supportive. Amy guides clients through practical tools and calm, honest conversation.

Taking the first step can feel hard, and she focuses on meeting people where they are to move forward together.

Evidence-informed approaches and flexible online care

Amy uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide sessions. She focuses on approaches that teach practical skills for managing anxiety and low mood, such as learning strategies to reduce panic and steady breathing to manage acute stress. She also works with techniques that break larger goals into manageable steps to improve motivation, organization, and self-esteem, which can be useful for people with attention differences.

Choosing the best method is a collaborative process. Amy will listen to your concerns, try a few approaches, and adjust plans based on what helps. Together you set goals, track progress, and shift strategies when something isn’t working.

Online therapy offers practical benefits for busy lives. Video calls let you have fuller conversations on a flexible schedule. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth or screen time is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging support brief check-ins, homework planning, and quick problem-solving between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or school routines while still getting consistent support.
