About Aimee

Aimee Gandy is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Florida who supports people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting challenges, addictions, relationship and intimacy-related issues, eating concerns, anger, self-esteem struggles, career questions, depression, coping with life changes, compassion fatigue, ADHD, and family-related matters.

Background and approach

She draws on six years of documented experience and has spent extensive time working in child welfare and with the adoption population, with a long history of serving children who have experienced abuse and neglect as well as experience providing in-home support for older adults. Her counseling manner is warm, engaging, and respectful, offering compassionate, nonjudgmental care.

Aimee integrates cognitive behavioral techniques alongside narrative approaches to help clients explore patterns, shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and reframe personal stories. She emphasizes starting where each person is and tailoring interventions to individual needs, helping clients pursue meaningful, practical change.

Clients who choose her work can expect an empowering partnership focused on realistic goals and steady progress. Aimee welcomes individuals prepared to pursue positive change and aims to provide steady support as they navigate transitions and recovery.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Client-centered therapy focuses on understanding each person's experience without judgment, offering empathy and support as the foundation for growth and helping people feel heard as they explore change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, using practical exercises and skill-building to reduce symptoms like anxiety or depression and address stress and coping challenges. Motivational Interviewing helps people resolve ambivalence and strengthen their own motivation for change by exploring values and goals in a collaborative way.

Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with clients to identify goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, adjusting methods over time to match changing needs and responses to treatment. That collaborative stance helps ensure the approach fits the person rather than forcing a single method.

Online therapy with this clinician can take place via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats allow clients to access consistent care from home or another convenient location, making it easier to maintain momentum and integrate therapeutic practices into daily life.
