About Aimee
Aimee Lighty is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who focuses on practical help for people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship strain. She presents a warm and supportive style and aims to make sessions useful and action-oriented. Her work emphasizes collaboration so clients leave with steps they can try between meetings.
With 15 years of experience, Aimee draws on cognitive behavioral tools to address thinking patterns that keep people stuck. She also borrows ideas from family-focused approaches when relationship dynamics are part of the concern. This lets her tailor the work to both individual needs and how people relate to those closest to them.
Clients can expect straightforward conversations that balance warmth with direct problem solving. Aimee can slow down and sit with strong emotions when needed, and she can shift to focused skill-building when the goal is symptom relief or behavior change. She aims to keep sessions practical and aligned with each client's goals.
She supports people with a wide range of concerns including parenting and family-related stress, addictions, trauma and abuse, mood disorders such as bipolar and depression, attention challenges, self-harm focus, and issues affecting self-esteem, sleep, or eating. She also notes work with veteran and armed forces related issues among her focus areas.
Aimee practices in Pennsylvania and offers therapy in English. Prospective clients should use the site process to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to availability.
How Aimee uses practical therapy approaches online
Aimee uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT often involves identifying patterns, testing new behaviors, and practicing skills that reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and sleep or eating concerns.She also works from a client-centered perspective that emphasizes the person9s own goals and experience. That means sessions focus on what matters to the client, with the therapist listening closely and adapting to each person9s needs.
Solution-focused ideas are used to set small, achievable goals and notice what is already working. This approach can be helpful when people want quicker, concrete changes in parenting routines, relationship interactions, or daily coping strategies.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and the problem at hand, then recommend strategies and adjust them over time in collaboration with the client.
