About Amy
Amy Haake is an Ohio LPCC - Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor with nine years of experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, parenting concerns, relationship strain, career burnout, addiction, and other mood and trauma-related issues. Amy works with people who feel overwhelmed by strong emotions and who want more manageable ways to live day to day.
Amy helps people learn to accept difficult feelings rather than push them away. She often works with clients who are near burnout at work and notice that stress is affecting home life. Sessions include practical skills for stress management, clearer ways to spend energy, and steps to reduce frequent overwhelm.
Her style is conversational and relaxed. Amy aims to keep sessions feeling like an open talk while introducing new skills and tools. She draws on methods such as cognitive behavioral strategies, acceptance-focused work, emotion-focused ideas, and mindfulness exercises to help people respond differently to intense feelings.
Clients come for a mix of concerns: depression, anxiety, parenting problems, relationship struggles, career difficulties, substance use, and trauma-related symptoms. Amy helps people try specific techniques, practice new reactions, and find outlets that fit daily life.
She avoids pathologizing language and focuses on respectful, direct care. People should expect straightforward skill-building and guided conversations about feelings, boundaries, and daily routines. Amy encourages practical steps that can be used between sessions to reduce stress and improve functioning.
How sessions work
How her approaches fit into online sessions
Amy commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing and accepting feelings while choosing actions that align with personal values; it can help with anxiety, burnout, and finding direction in life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches concrete techniques to change unhelpful patterns; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress management.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. She will talk with each person about goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try first. The therapist and client decide collaboratively what feels most useful and adjust over time based on what helps.
Session format details are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so people can use a lunch break or an evening slot more easily. Many clients find remote sessions helpful for practicing skills in the context of everyday life and for keeping momentum between meetings.
