About Amie
Amie Diminico is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Massachusetts with 12 years of clinical experience. She trained in counseling psychology at Northeastern University, earning both a bachelor's and a master’s degree. Her background includes work in community mental health where she led individual, family, couples, and group therapy teams.
Amie draws on practical methods to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and mood concerns such as bipolar disorder.
Background and approach
She also helps with relationship strains, parenting challenges, addictions, and life transitions. Sessions tend to focus on clear, achievable goals and steady skill building. Her approach is collaborative and narrative-informed.
She helps people tell and reframe the stories that shape their choices and emotions. That work is often paired with acceptance and commitment strategies and cognitive-behavioral tools to change unhelpful patterns. Amie has substantial experience coordinating multidisciplinary care and linking clients to community resources, including employment supports.
She emphasizes straightforward conversation, planning, and measurable steps so progress is visible. Clients can expect a calm, nonjudgmental space where Amie listens, asks direct questions, and helps identify practical next steps. She aims to strengthen each person’s sense of agency while working toward realistic change.
Outside clinical duties she balances a busy family life, which informs her understanding of juggling work, parenting, and life stressors. That perspective often shapes how she helps people create routines and supports that fit daily demands.

Online session options
How narrative and evidence-based approaches work online
Amie blends narrative work with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and attachment-focused ideas to guide online sessions. Narrative work helps people examine the stories they tell about themselves and reframe those stories to open up new choices. ACT focuses on clarifying values and teaching simple practices to act toward those values even when difficult feelings are present. Attachment-based ideas look at how early relationship patterns shape current connections and help people build healthier ways of relating.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Amie will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That may mean using story-focused exercises one week and skills practice from ACT or cognitive-behavioral techniques the next; the plan is revisited as needs evolve.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video is useful for deeper conversation and exercises that benefit from visual cues. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging suit quick check-ins, coaching-style support, and ongoing skills practice between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, school, or family routines while keeping the focus on practical change.
