Dr. Amy Wagner, LCSW, CSW

Dr. Amy Wagner is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who helps people facing stressful seasons at home and work. She supports parents and caregivers as they manage day-to-day challenges and bigger transitions. Her calm, straightforward style is meant to make hard conversations easier to begin.

She often works with people who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or exhausted by long-term stress and family conflict. She also helps those processing trauma, managing self-esteem struggles, or navigating career and life changes. Dr. Wagner pays attention to the practical problems that make daily life harder and looks for steps that can help right away.

Her approach pulls from Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, with a solution-focused orientation. That means sessions focus on the person’s goals, the beliefs and actions that get in the way, and small changes that add up. Expectations and plans are shaped together, so strategies feel usable in real life.

Dr. Wagner has 15 years of experience working with issues related to adoption and foster care, autism and Asperger syndrome, caregiver stress, chronic illness and disability, intellectual disability, and traumatic brain injury. She brings this experience into practical conversations about how to manage care, routines, and emotional strain.

She practices in Georgia and offers services in English. International clients are accepted. To begin, visitors complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to therapist availability.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person’s priorities. In practice this means the therapist follows the client’s lead, reflects what matters most, and helps clarify goals and choices. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the thoughts and behaviors that maintain distress and teaches concrete skills to change them, often helping with anxiety, stress, and mood. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, achievable steps and on what a person wants to be different soon rather than on long explanations of the past.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. The therapist will help clients choose methods that match their needs, goals, and what feels comfortable. Sessions are collaborative and intended to test what helps, then adapt based on what works in everyday life.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also support work on skills between meetings and make collaboration with caregivers or other supports simpler when that is helpful.
