About Amy
Amy Norberg is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in West Virginia who helps parents and individuals facing stress, anxiety, mood changes, and parenting worries. She speaks plain language and focuses on practical steps parents can try between sessions. Her approach aims to reduce overwhelm and restore a sense of control when routines and relationships feel strained.
Amy has 13 years of experience working in mental health settings. She has supported people dealing with trauma and abuse, depression, bipolar challenges, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and sleep problems.
Background and approach
She also helps with relationship and intimacy-related concerns and career stress. Amy offers guidance around adoption and foster care issues, abandonment, codependency, and communication struggles. In sessions she draws on several well-known approaches.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people notice thoughts that affect mood and try different behaviors. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) supports clearer values and taking meaningful action even when feelings are hard. She also uses Client-Centered and Emotionally-Focused ideas to create a respectful, listening space.
Amy offers a mix of session formats including video calls, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging. Sessions are provided in English and are arranged through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. Costs vary with location and therapist availability.
To begin, a parent or individual can use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule based on availability. Amy aims to work collaboratively to set realistic goals and practical steps between sessions.

How therapy approaches translate to online support
Amy often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which helps clients identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors; this approach works well for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and day-to-day stress. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is another method she uses that focuses on clarifying personal values and taking meaningful action even when emotions are difficult, which can help with parenting decisions and life transitions. She also brings in Client-Centered principles that prioritize listening and building a respectful, collaborative relationship.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Amy will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels helpful. Together they decide which strategies to try and adjust the plan as progress is noticed or priorities change.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video allows face-to-face conversation for deeper emotional work. Phone sessions can be an easier option when less bandwidth is available or for a quieter check-in. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief check-ins, timely coaching, or when writing out thoughts feels most helpful. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy parenting schedules and varying routines.
