About Amy
Amy Brant is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in Indiana with 30 years of experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, anger, grief, addiction, and life changes. Amy also supports people facing issues like parenting strain, intimacy concerns, self-esteem struggles, career stress, and ADHD-related challenges.
She began her career in 1998 as a teacher for students with special needs and later worked as a public school guidance counselor. In 2011 she completed her LMFT degree and shifted into family therapy work. That background gives her a long history of working with people across different life stages and challenges.
Amy adapts her approach to what each person needs. Some people do well with brief, solution-focused work. Others prefer a longer, educational or collaborative process that looks at how past experiences and family patterns affect present behavior. She blends approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Attachment-Based ideas depending on the situation.
Sessions involve listening, practical skill-building, and planning for specific changes. Amy can help someone reduce impulsive reactions, handle built-up resentment, or learn ways to communicate without escalating. She also works on topics such as grief, chronic health stress, caregiver strain, and body image concerns.
Her practice style emphasizes clear goals, behavioral strategies, and attention to relationship patterns. To start, she asks about current problems, personal history, and what the client wants to change. From there she and the client choose techniques that fit their pace and goals.
How sessions work
How her therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Amy uses approaches that focus on values, behavior change, and relationship patterns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and commit to actions that reflect their values; it is often used for anxiety, anger, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and teaches concrete skills to change them; it can help with anger, depression, and stress. Attachment-Based Therapy examines how early relationship patterns influence current reactions and communication, which is useful when anger is linked to closeness or trust issues.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Amy and the client discuss goals, symptoms, and preferences and then pick methods that fit. That collaborative process makes it easier to try techniques, adjust them, or combine approaches as progress unfolds.

Practical benefits include easier scheduling and the ability to continue work while juggling caregiving, jobs, or health concerns.
