About Amy

Amy Norberg is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who focuses on midlife concerns alongside relationship, family, trauma, mood, and stress-related issues. She speaks plainly and helps people sort through life changes, parenting strain, sleep problems, and career crossroads in ways that make sense day to day. Her approach aims to make next steps clearer rather than rush to quick fixes.

Amy has 13 years of experience in mental health work across different settings. She has worked with adults across a wide age range and has experience with concerns such as anxiety, depression, bipolar symptoms, anger, and attention differences. She also addresses topics like abandonment, adoption and foster care, body image, codependency, and isolation or loneliness.

Her clinical work draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioral ideas, client-centered listening, dialectical behavior strategies, and emotionally-focused techniques. That means sessions often mix practical skill practice with time to name feelings and values. Amy tends to help people notice what matters and try small steps that align with their goals.

People who come to her often want straightforward guidance and a calm presence. She supports parents managing stress, people rebuilding after loss or separation, and those working through trauma or attachment wounds. Her work also includes coaching-style help for career and life transitions.

Amy practices in West Virginia and conducts sessions in English. If a person wants to begin, they can use the site's Start Therapy button to complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule according to availability.

Approaches for online work and making therapy fit your life

Amy uses approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy to guide online work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and take small actions that match those values while learning to be present with difficult thoughts and feelings. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening with curiosity and empathy so a person feels understood and can follow their own pace of change.

She also incorporates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) tools when helpful, such as identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and practicing skills to shift behavior. These methods are chosen to match each person's concerns, whether that is managing anxiety, coping with midlife change, or improving sleep and routines.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with the person about goals, try methods that feel practical, and adjust based on what helps. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week; confirm the specific session options before booking so you know how meetings will happen. Many people appreciate that therapy by remote appointment can reduce travel, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and slot into work or caregiving schedules more readily.
