About Aimee
Aimee Gandy is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who helps people navigate stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, grief, trauma, and related concerns. She brings a calm, respectful manner to sessions and focuses on practical steps parents can try between meetings. Her approach is straightforward and supportive for people looking for change.
Gandy has practiced in settings that include child welfare and adoption services. She has spent much of the last decade working with children who experienced abuse and neglect, and she has experience supporting older adults in their homes.
Background and approach
That background informs how she sees family dynamics and caregiving strains. Her counseling style is warm and engaging. She treats people with compassion and without judgment, meeting clients where they are and adapting techniques to each person’s needs.
Sessions emphasize clear goals and usable strategies rather than abstract theory. Aimee draws from cognitive behavioral ideas to help clients notice patterns of thought and try different behaviors. She also uses narrative techniques to help people make sense of past events and reshape personal stories that feel stuck.
Motivational interviewing and solution-focused work are used when the goal is change-oriented or decision-focused. Clients can expect practical tools for day-to-day parenting stress, emotional regulation, and coping with life transitions. She aims to empower people to make manageable changes and to build on strengths already present in their lives.

Approaches that guide online parenting support
Aimee uses cognitive behavioral ideas to help people notice how thoughts affect feelings and behavior. That work often includes simple experiments and practical skills to reduce anxiety, manage anger, or change unhelpful routines. Narrative therapy is also part of her practice and focuses on the stories people tell about themselves. It helps when past events shape how someone sees parenting or their role in relationships, and it makes room for different, more helpful narratives.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Aimee will listen to your goals, try out methods together, and adjust based on what helps most. She blends techniques like solution-focused questions and motivational interviewing when the aim is clear decision-making or short-term change, and shifts as longer work becomes necessary.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit busy schedules. Video works well for a deeper conversation and visual cues, while phone calls are useful when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text can serve for quick check-ins, brief coaching, or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, school, or caregiving routines while keeping the focus on practical progress.
