About Amy

Amy Flores is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Tennessee. She brings five years of clinical work to her current role and a decade of experience addressing behavior and social-emotional challenges. Amy focuses on helping people who are stressed, anxious, grieving, or navigating major life changes, including those affected by ADHD.

Amy uses a strengths-based, client-centered approach that keeps the person’s goals at the center of care. She blends straightforward skill-building with practical strategies from cognitive behavioral work and dialectical behavior ideas.

Background and approach

Mindfulness and motivational interviewing are woven in when they fit a person’s needs. In sessions she aims to rebuild confidence and highlight strengths that feel lost or hard to trust. Amy keeps language plain and concrete, working step by step toward goals such as reducing anxiety, managing mood, or improving communication.

She emphasizes small, doable changes rather than overwhelming plans. Her background includes work with trauma, abuse, depression, bipolar concerns, relationship stress, parenting strain, and anger. She also addresses related topics like attachment, caregiver stress, blended family issues, and forgiveness.

Amy views the therapeutic relationship as a collaborative project. She focuses on building trust and creating practical tools the person can use day to day. The aim is steady progress and clearer direction for the next steps in life.

How these approaches translate to online care

Amy often draws on client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, and dialectical behavior ideas. Client-centered work focuses on listening and building a plan from the person’s goals, which helps people feel heard and involved. Cognitive behavioral techniques look at thoughts and behaviors and teach practical skills to reduce anxiety, manage mood, or handle ADHD-related challenges. Dialectical behavior ideas add concrete coping skills for emotional regulation and better interpersonal communication when feelings run high.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Amy works collaboratively to test methods and adjust based on what fits. Together the therapist and client pick skills and strategies that match current needs, goals, and daily routines rather than assuming one method will work for everyone.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and skill practice. Phone sessions can be a good shorter check-in or for lower bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging make it easier to fit brief check-ins into a busy day or continue work between sessions. These options offer flexibility so therapy can be shaped around work, school, and family life rather than the other way around.
