More about Amelia

6 years' experience
Female
LISW

Hi! I am an LISW-S with 6 years of experience in the social work/mental health field. I received a master's degree from Case Western Reserve University and am currently licensed with Ohio. Clients I work with experience anxiety, depression, life changes, relationship issues, LGBTQ+ identity issues, and more. I have experience working with individuals in and around the foster care/adoption systems including relative caregivers and aged out youth. I highly value working with diverse populations.

I view myself as a teammate to my clients, and as a result they will get to see my humanity while I see theirs. I typically take a direct, strengths-based, and humanistic approach to helping my clients reach their goals.

Along with teamwork, I also value empowerment, guidance, empathy, and humor, which you can expect to get from me in each session. It is my hope that each session is valuable, while we also acknowledge that not every session needs to be heavy. I adapt to the needs of my clients well, and hope to instill confidence and communication skills so that my clients can feel they are leading the sessions and addressing what they came to address.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
