About Aimee

Aimee Gandy is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Florida who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief, parenting struggles, trauma and abuse, and addictions. She also supports people dealing with relationship and intimacy issues, self-esteem concerns, eating and anger problems, career transitions, compassion fatigue, ADHD, and general coping with life changes.

Her style is warm and respectful and she aims to meet people where they are. She blends Narrative Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in conversations that focus on a person’s life story and daily patterns.

Background and approach

Sessions move between looking at how past events shape current problems and trying small, practical changes that ease symptoms. She listens without judgment and adjusts the plan to what feels most useful to each person. Aimee has six years of experience listed for clinical practice and holds the LCSW credential.

Her background includes work in child welfare and with the adoption population, and she has provided care in home settings for older adults. Those roles inform how she frames trauma, attachment, and care challenges. In sessions she aims to empower clients with clearer choices and coping tools.

She uses goal-focused work alongside reflective conversations about identity and relationships. This combination helps when someone needs short-term solutions or deeper narrative shifts. Her approach is collaborative: she works with each person to set goals and tries methods that fit their daily life.

People can expect straightforward discussion, practical strategies, and attention to how their story affects current struggles.

Narrative Therapy in this listing

Narrative Therapy appears in this therapist's own list of approaches. That tells you it is part of how she works. It does not tell you how much of a session it shapes, and this directory does not check or rate training.

If a narrative approach is what you are looking for, it is worth asking Aimee directly how she uses it and what a session usually looks like.

Online session options

How narrative and practical approaches work online

Aimee uses Narrative Therapy to help people look at the stories they tell about themselves and their relationships. This approach examines how past events and personal narratives shape current feelings and behavior, which can help with trauma, identity questions, and relationship patterns.

She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small changes in behavior. CBT-style work is useful for anxiety, depression, and building practical coping skills that can be practiced between sessions.

Finding the right mix of approaches is collaborative. The therapist and client talk about goals and try methods that fit the person’s needs and preferences. Aimee adjusts the balance of narrative reflection and behavior-focused techniques as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is helpful for longer conversations and visual cues, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, live chat and text can serve for brief check-ins or between-session support, and different formats make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules. These options help people access consistent support without travel and allow the therapist to match the format to the work being done.
