About Amy
Amy Norberg is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in West Virginia. She brings 13 years of experience to sessions and focuses on practical support for everyday struggles. She talks with people about anxiety, depression, stress, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting strain, and trouble sleeping.
Amy uses narrative approaches to help people tell the story of their lives and notice patterns that no longer serve them. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients clarify values and take small steps toward change.
Background and approach
Sessions are conversational and aimed at real-life improvements rather than theory alone. Her background includes work across multiple mental health settings over more than a decade. That experience informs a flexible style that combines ideas from cognitive behavioral and client-centered work.
She helps people handle anger, self-esteem struggles, career questions, and grief from separation or loss. Clients with complex histories such as trauma, abandonment, or dissociation find concrete tools in sessions. Amy also supports people coping with ADHD, bipolar concerns, compassion fatigue, and challenges around body image or codependency.
She pays attention to how stories from the past shape day-to-day choices. Sessions cover skills for managing impulsivity, improving communication, and reducing isolation. Amy aims to help people build routines that improve sleep, manage stress, and strengthen relationships.
The work is collaborative and paced to each person's needs.

How narrative and values-based work translate online
Amy uses Narrative Therapy to help people revisit the stories they tell about themselves and their relationships. This approach looks at how events are framed and helps people develop alternative stories that open new choices. It can be useful for challenges like family problems, abandonment, or feeling stuck.She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on clarifying what matters to each person and taking committed steps toward those values. ACT offers simple exercises to reduce struggle with painful thoughts and to increase meaningful action, which can help with anxiety, depression, and life transitions.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Amy treats therapy as a collaborative process and will discuss what seems to help most based on a client's goals and preferences. Together they decide whether narrative exploration, values-based experiments, or skill-focused CBT or DBT techniques fit best.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions use less bandwidth, live chat can work for quick check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into daily life and keep progress consistent.
