About Amy

Amy Brant is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) based in Indiana with 30 years of experience. She helps people managing stress, anxiety, depression, codependency, relationship and family concerns, addictions, grief, and parenting challenges. Amy listens closely and focuses on practical steps people can use right away.

She began as a teacher for students with special needs and then served as a public school guidance counselor. That path led her to earn her LMFT when she decided to focus on how family patterns and past experiences shape adult choices. Her background brings experience supporting people through life changes and chronic stress.

Amy adapts her approach to fit each person. Some clients prefer brief solution-focused work with clear goals. Others benefit from a more collaborative, educational style that looks at patterns and skills over time.

She uses several therapy methods including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based work, Client-Centered therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. Those methods are mixed to match the issue and the person’s pace.

Sessions emphasize a supportive stance, practical skill-building, and attention to how past relationships influence current behavior. Amy helps people understand patterns, make small changes, and plan for healthier interactions going forward.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Amy draws on several approaches to tailor work to each person. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values; it can be useful for anxiety, depression, and life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships affect current patterns and helps people build healthier ways of relating to others. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing thought and behavior patterns that keep problems going, which can help with anxiety, depression, and coping skills. Finding the right approach is part of the work. Amy collaborates with each person to decide which methods to try, adjusting based on goals, progress, and preference. She aims to make the process practical and understandable so people can use what they learn between sessions. Confirm the available session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during breaks, and offering options when video is not convenient. These practical benefits often help people maintain consistency and apply new skills in day-to-day situations.
