About Amy
Dr. Amy Still is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in North Carolina with five years of professional experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem, depression, and addictive behaviors. Her practice also supports people facing parenting stress and major life changes.
Dr. Still frames clients as the experts in their own stories and looks for strengths to build on. In sessions she focuses on practical steps people can use to reduce reactivity, improve communication, and rebuild confidence. She encourages small, steady changes rather than dramatic fixes.
Her background includes several years of front-line social work where she supported people through crisis and recovery. That work shaped a straightforward approach that blends skill-building with conversational reflection. Clients can expect discussions that move from problem identification to specific strategies they can try between sessions.
Dr. Still often addresses patterns that lead to repeated anger or avoidance. She helps people recognize triggers, practice calming responses, and repair relationships affected by outbursts. Work can include building coping plans for stress, managing panic symptoms, and addressing guilt or shame that keeps someone stuck.
She also has focus areas around adoption and foster care, body image, and women’s issues. People who prefer clear, actionable steps and a collaborative tone may find her way of working fits well. To begin, the site’s matching process is the next step for scheduling a first session.
How therapeutic approaches are used online
Dr. Still uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on skills people can apply right away. One approach centers on identifying triggers and practicing calming responses; it teaches concrete ways to reduce anger spikes and manage stress in the moment. Another approach emphasizes building coping skills for anxiety and panic, using stepwise exposure to difficult situations and short exercises to lower physiological arousal. Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work together. She collaborates with each person to choose approaches that match their goals and preferences, and adjusts the plan as they try strategies and report what helps. The process is meant to be practical and tailored through ongoing discussion rather than fixed in advance. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into daily life, for example by allowing shorter check-ins during a workday or avoiding travel time.
