About Amy
LCSW licensed in New York with 17 years of experience. Amy Poplarski helps people manage stress and anxiety, navigate relationship and family concerns, and address parenting challenges. She uses practical problem-solving and structured conversations to make sessions focused and actionable.
Amy prefers clear, goal-oriented work. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thinking, test small behavioral changes, and build strategies that fit daily life. Sessions emphasize skills that can be practiced between meetings.
She has worked across social work settings for nearly two decades. That background informs a straightforward approach to family and relationship concerns, including blended family issues, divorce and separation, and communication problems. Caregiver stress and impulsivity are also areas she addresses.
Amy describes therapy as collaborative. She and the person she’s working with set short-term goals, check progress, and adjust plans when needed. She aims to keep conversations concrete and tied to real-life situations.
People can expect sessions that focus on what to try next. Amy supports young adult issues and helps anyone coping with life changes to find steps forward. Sessions are conducted in English and reflect her New York practice and experience.

How her approaches translate to online sessions
CBT helps people notice and test unhelpful thoughts and habits. In session, this often means tracking situations, identifying thoughts, and trying small behavior changes between meetings to see what helps. It’s useful for anxiety, stress, and impulsivity.Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on practical steps and clear goals. Sessions prioritize what works now, build on existing strengths, and outline short-term actions to move forward. This approach fits problems like communication breakdowns and parenting challenges.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. She collaborates with each person to decide which approach or combination best fits their needs, goals, and preferences. That decision can change as progress is checked and new priorities emerge.
Confirm the available session formats before booking, as formats were not specified in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. They can also let people avoid being on camera if that helps, or choose a lower-bandwidth option when internet speed is limited.
