About Amy
Amy Daum is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Wisconsin with ten years of clinical experience. She focuses on common but painful problems like stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, depression, and big life transitions. Amy aims to offer a calm, respectful space where people can talk about what feels hard and begin to make changes.
She works with people who are dealing with attachment concerns, codependency, communication struggles, and family of origin wounds.
Background and approach
Amy also helps with substance use challenges, impulsivity, jealousy, and feelings of emptiness or low self-worth. Seasonal Affective Disorder and post-traumatic stress are among the issues she addresses as well. Amy uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and adapts conversations to fit each person’s needs.
Sessions are practical and focused on small, usable steps as well as understanding deeper patterns. She pays attention to how relationships, past hurts, and coping habits shape current difficulties. Her approach is collaborative: she and the client set goals together and review progress over time.
Amy emphasizes compassion and sensitivity while encouraging honest self-reflection and realistic action. She supports people through both immediate crises and longer-term rebuilding. Therapy with Amy can include talk-based work alongside strategies for managing mood, cravings, and triggers.
People who want clearer communication, healthier boundaries, or relief from persistent anxiety often find this blend helpful.
Approaches that guide online work and recovery
Amy uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that help people manage symptoms and change patterns. One common approach focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce anxiety and depression; it teaches practical skills for mood regulation and problem solving. Another approach emphasizes understanding relationship patterns and attachment wounds, helping people improve communication, set boundaries, and heal from past hurts.Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. Amy will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked in the past. Together they explore which techniques match the presenting concerns, then adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online therapy with Amy is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make care accessible. Video allows more face-to-face interaction for deeper conversation. Phone works when bandwidth is limited or a simpler check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging can be useful for brief updates, coping reminders, or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and maintain continuity during transitions.
