About Amy
Amy Klein is an LMSW and LICSW practicing in Michigan with 14 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, addictions, depression, grief, parenting concerns, intimacy-related issues, ADHD, and family of origin questions.

She has provided individual and group therapy and has experience in diverse settings including in-home family programs, a Native tribe clinic, a medium-security prison, rural schools, and a medical clinic. She also served as a VISTA volunteer and as a Peace Corps youth-at-risk volunteer in Kingston, Jamaica.
Her approach mixes practical skills with reflective practices. She uses mindfulness and cognitive-behavioral techniques to help people notice patterns and try new actions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas support clarifying values and committing to small, doable steps.
Amy also draws on storytelling, movement practices, and breath-based work in sessions when it fits the person’s needs. She mentions yoga teaching and additional personal practices that shape how she guides breath and grounding exercises in session.
People who come for help with family of origin issues, grief, or major life changes will find a clinician who emphasizes noticing habitual responses and testing new ways of relating to self and others. She accepts international clients and conducts work in English. Before booking, confirm current session formats and scheduling options.
How Amy’s approaches translate to online work
The therapist uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in short, practical ways to clarify what matters to a person and identify small actions that align with those values. ACT is useful for anxiety, stress, and coping with life changes because it emphasizes willingness to notice difficult thoughts while still moving toward chosen goals.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and practice different responses. CBT offers concrete tools for anxiety, depression, eating concerns, and managing mood shifts. Client-centered principles are woven through sessions to keep the focus on what the person wants to address and how they prefer to work.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative process can include trying short experiments with mindfulness or CBT exercises and checking how those feel between sessions.
The biography does not specify session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or remove travel time so people can access care from different locations. Licensed professionals can adapt breathing, grounding, and cognitive exercises to virtual sessions so the therapeutic work remains practical and focused.
