About Amy

Amy Roth is a Licensed Professional Counselor-Mental Health (LPC-MH) and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in South Dakota. She has over 15 years of experience and often works with people feeling overwhelmed by depression, anxiety, trauma, or major life changes. Amy aims to make therapy clear and practical so people can take the next small step forward.

Amy uses a person-centered approach that starts with what each client needs right now. She listens for what is most urgent and helps set short-term goals that fit daily life. Sessions draw on techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness to address mood, panic, and stress-related problems.

Attachment and relationship patterns are a frequent focus. Amy helps people look at early bonds and how those patterns show up in current relationships and parenting. She also supports people navigating gender identity questions and the strain that can come from caregiving or compassion fatigue.

Amy offers video, live chat, and phone sessions so therapy can fit into busy schedules. She typically works with clients aged 15 and up, though she has experience across the lifespan. Costs vary with location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

To begin, a person picks the Start Therapy button, completes a short matching questionnaire, and then schedules according to the therapist's availability. Amy aims to help people feel heard and to build practical tools for coping and growth.

How these approaches translate to online therapy

Amy draws on cognitive behavioral therapy and attachment-based work to guide online sessions. CBT focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking and testing small behavior changes to reduce anxiety and depression symptoms. Attachment-based work looks at early relationship patterns and how they affect current bonds and parenting struggles.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Amy collaborates with each person to decide what methods to try first, based on their goals, life demands, and how they respond in early sessions. That makes therapy more practical and tailored rather than one-size-fits-all.

Her practice offers video, live chat, and phone sessions so people can fit therapy into busy lives. Those options can make it easier to attend when schedules are tight, to check in on a quick break, or to choose a session style that feels less demanding on bandwidth or on-camera time. Confirm the current session formats before booking so they match your needs and routine.
