About Amy
LCSW in North Carolina with 17 years of experience, Amy Murray helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and self-esteem concerns. She also focuses on coping with life changes, communication problems, forgiveness, guilt and shame, self-love, and women’s issues. Sessions are oriented toward practical skills and clear steps rather than abstract theory.
Amy uses an eclectic mix of techniques. She leans on mindfulness-based cognitive behavioral methods to notice and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Solution-focused work helps set small, achievable goals. She also incorporates yoga-based breathing and movement and narrative approaches to rewrite unhelpful stories people tell about themselves.
In a typical session she helps clients identify patterns in thought, behavior, and relationships. She guides simple exercises for breathing and movement when useful. She also practices narrative work that looks at beliefs and the stories people hold about their lives.
The aim is to build concrete coping skills. Clients learn ways to manage anxiety, handle grief, and make changes that suit their daily life. Sessions emphasize what can be practiced between meetings so progress continues outside the room.
Amy invites collaboration on goals and methods. She helps people use their own strengths while adding new skills for stress management and emotional regulation. If you are considering therapy, confirm current session options before booking.

How her approaches translate to online work
Mindfulness-based cognitive behavioral techniques teach people to notice thoughts and bodily reactions, then try small behavioral changes to reduce anxiety and low mood. This approach often includes short exercises to practice during the week, like observing automatic thoughts and testing them. Solution-focused techniques concentrate on practical, reachable steps. Sessions move quickly to set goals, track progress, and build momentum with small changes. Narrative approaches look at the stories someone tells about themselves and then test alternate ways of seeing those stories, which can reduce shame and increase self-compassion. Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which approaches suit their needs, goals, and preferences. That decision can change as progress is made. The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into daily life by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, and letting people work from quieter surroundings or during a break at work. Licensed professionals can adapt breathing and movement exercises, thought records, and goal-setting work to an online setting so practical skills continue between sessions.Sheet 3
