About Amy
Amy Schold is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Louisiana who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, grief, and relationship struggles. She draws on two decades of clinical experience to offer steady support when life feels overwhelming. Her approach aims to build practical skills and steady coping strategies rather than quick fixes.
She begins by listening closely to what matters most to each person. That helps her and the client set clear, doable goals.
Background and approach
Sessions often focus on small behavior changes, emotion regulation, and problem-solving that can be used right away. Amy uses client-centered methods alongside cognitive behavioral techniques and elements of dialectical behavior therapy. That mix supports people who want to understand unhelpful thinking, practice new habits, and manage strong emotions.
She also brings mindfulness and motivational interviewing tools to help maintain progress over time. Clients can expect a respectful, straightforward style in sessions. Amy aims to create a space where people feel heard and treated with dignity.
She works to translate insight into actions that make daily life easier. Her practice addresses a wide range of concerns such as mood disorders, addictions, trauma and abuse, parenting strain, impulsivity, obsessive-compulsive issues, panic, and women's issues. With 20 years of experience, she tailors practical strategies to each person's situation and goals.
Therapeutic Approaches for Online Support
Amy often uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT breaks problems into manageable steps and is useful for anxiety, depression, and impulsive patterns.She also draws on dialectical behavior therapy skills to teach practical emotion regulation and distress tolerance. DBT tools can help when emotions feel intense or reactions feel hard to control. Client-centered work rounds out her approach by focusing on what matters most to the individual and shaping goals around personal values.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their needs, goals, and day-to-day life. That means adjusting techniques over time and mixing approaches when helpful.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people use visual cues and longer conversations, phone can fit into a busy day or use less bandwidth, live chat is useful for shorter check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to match therapy to routines and schedules.
