About Amie

Amie Bishop is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) with 14 years of clinical experience. She practices in Florida and lists concerns including stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship and family issues, depression, LGBT concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related problems, sleep difficulties, parenting, anger, self-esteem, career questions, bipolar disorder, and coping with life changes.

Amie takes a practical, straightforward approach in sessions. She uses a mix of methods rather than one fixed model. Sessions focus on clear goals, improved communication, and steps people can take between meetings.

She has worked with adults facing substance use and addiction, trauma from disasters, and people in the criminal justice system. Amie also notes experience with sexual and intimacy concerns and with people from alternative sexual cultures such as BDSM and kink.

Clients can expect Amie to treat them without judgment while working together to set achievable goals. Her background includes supporting those coping with chronic illness, cancer, grief, and complex mood or personality issues.

Her practice emphasizes practical skill-building alongside personal reflection. That can mean learning specific techniques to manage anxiety, trying new communication strategies, or planning steps toward career and life changes. For anyone thinking about therapy, she asks them to start by completing the matching questionnaire and scheduling an initial session.

How her clinical approaches shape online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so people can clarify what matters to them and choose next steps; it helps with confidence, self-esteem, and relationship concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and offers practical techniques for anxiety, depression, and mood management. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and better interpersonal interactions, which can be useful for strong emotions and relationship strain.

Finding the right approach is part of the early work. She will collaborate with each person to decide which methods to use, combining techniques as needed. The plan is reviewed and adjusted based on what is helping and what the client prefers.

Her biography lists messaging, live chat, and live phone sessions as offered options, so confirm current session formats before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a day, allow shorter check-ins during a busy week, or let someone use a phone session when bandwidth is limited. Licensed professionals can guide you on which format fits your goals and schedule.
