About Amy

Amy Iannitelli is a Florida-licensed mental health counselor with 23 years of clinical experience who guides people through difficult transitions and emotional challenges. She draws on a broad set of trauma-informed and skills-based methods to address stress, anxiety, family dynamics, trauma and abuse, and recovery from loss.

Background and approach

Her work also includes support for concerns such as ADHD, eating and body image issues, panic attacks, and relationship and intimacy-related struggles. Her style blends evidence-based interventions with a warm, client-centered stance that adapts to each person's needs.

Amy integrates approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, DBT skills, EMDR, and trauma-focused work to help clients build practical coping strategies, process painful memories, and strengthen emotional regulation. She attends to career stress, parenting and pregnancy-related challenges, compassion fatigue, and complex family problems while keeping treatment grounded in the client's goals.

Clients can expect collaborative exploration aimed at increasing resilience and self-understanding. Amy emphasizes tailored planning and paced progress so people can address immediate concerns while building longer-term skills for navigating life changes and relationship tensions.

Evidence-Based Approaches for Online Care

Many of Amy's interventions translate well to online formats, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and EMDR. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression, offering practical tools for managing stress and panic. EMDR helps people process traumatic memories and the emotions attached to them through structured processing techniques aimed at reducing the intensity of distressing recollections.

She also uses client-centered principles that emphasize empathy, validation, and collaboration; this approach helps shape treatment goals around each person's values and priorities. Together the therapist and client determine which methods fit best based on presenting concerns, personal preferences, and therapeutic progress, making adjustments as needed in a collaborative way.

Online therapy offers flexible options such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and comfort levels. These formats can make it easier to maintain regular sessions, practice skills between meetings, and access care from wherever the client is located while working with a licensed professional.
