Amie Bishop, LPC, LCPC

Amie Bishop is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) and licensed clinical professional counselor (LCPC) based in Florida with 14 years of experience. She creates an open, nonjudgmental space where people can talk about difficult topics and set reachable goals. Sessions focus on real life changes like reducing stress, improving relationships, and managing mood or addictive behavior.

Amie works with people facing a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, and intimate relationship issues. She also supports those coping with chronic illness, cancer, chronic pain, and the effects of natural or human-caused disasters. She welcomes diverse sexual expressions and alternative lifestyles and is comfortable discussing kink and BDSM when relevant.

Her approach mixes client-centered listening with practical techniques. She draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to challenge unhelpful thinking and on dialectical behavior therapy to teach emotion regulation skills. Emotionally focused ideas and Gottman-informed strategies guide work on attachment and communication in relationships.

Sessions emphasize teamwork: the client and Amie set goals together and outline concrete steps to reach them. That might include new coping strategies, communication practice, or short-term coaching tasks between meetings. The focus is on everyday tools that fit into a person’s life.

Amie offers support for people dealing with parenting strain, career stress, compassion fatigue, and complicated bereavement. Her style is direct but warm, with attention to safety, respect, and clear steps forward.

How Amie’s Approaches Translate to Online Work

Client-centered therapy means Amie focuses on listening and understanding each person’s priorities first, and then shaping sessions around those goals. This approach helps people feel heard and guides practical next steps for coping and problem solving.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is a hands-on approach that looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. Online CBT sessions often include short exercises and homework to try between meetings, which can help with anxiety, depression, and stress management.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, provides clear skills for managing intense emotions, improving distress tolerance, and strengthening interpersonal effectiveness. These skills can be practiced in short, focused online sessions and reinforced with coaching-style check-ins.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Amie collaborates with clients to select methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts the plan over time. That collaborative process includes trying techniques and tracking what helps most.

The therapist biography lists messaging, live chat, and live phone sessions as formats used, so confirm which of those are available when you schedule. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy day, support brief check-ins, and allow skill practice between meetings without needing extra travel time.
