About Amy
Amy Phelps is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Oklahoma who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship struggles, and issues with addiction and eating. She draws on nearly 18 years of clinical experience and aims to guide people toward clearer thinking and steadier coping.
Amy writes plainly and works to create a calm, direct space for someone every step of the way. She uses attachment-based ideas alongside concrete tools from cognitive behavioral and acceptance-based approaches.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on understanding patterns, naming feelings, and testing small changes that can feel doable at home. Amy describes her style as client-centered and trauma-informed, meaning she tailors the work to each person and pays attention to safety and pacing. Amy also uses techniques from dialectical behavior therapy to help with strong emotions and practical skills for day-to-day life.
She blends skills training with gentle exploration of past hurts that affect current relationships and choices. Her own long recovery journey informs how she talks about relapse, resilience, and rebuilding routines. She has experience supervising other clinicians and has worked in leadership roles that supported local programs.
That supervisory background informs her focus on accountability and ongoing learning. Her approach is collaborative - she and the person in therapy set goals and track progress together. Sessions are offered in English and delivered online by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging.
Starting is a simple process: complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a session that fits the person's needs.

How attachment and skill-based therapies work online
Amy often draws from attachment-based therapy to look at how early patterns shape current relationships and emotional responses. This approach helps people notice recurring ways they connect or pull away and try different, safer ways of relating. It is useful for intimacy issues, abandonment concerns, and communication struggles.She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people clarify values and take small actions toward a life they care about, even when difficult feelings are present. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is another frequent tool she uses to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and build practical coping skills for anxiety, depression, and sleep problems.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Amy treats therapy as a collaborative process and will help figure out which methods fit someone’s goals and preferences. She checks in about progress and adjusts techniques as needed so the plan stays practical and relevant.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging make brief check-ins, skill coaching, and reminders easier to fit into a busy day. These formats help people keep therapy consistent while fitting sessions into work, family, and life commitments.
