Aimee Campbell Culler, LCSW

Aimee Campbell Culler is a licensed clinical social worker with 36 years of experience in North Carolina. She helps people who are overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, trauma, and addictions. Her approach aims to make reaching out feel straightforward and manageable for someone taking a first step toward change.

Aimee creates a calm, nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be talked through. She focuses on practical ways to manage intense emotions and reduce unhelpful patterns. Sessions tend to combine clear tools with steady support so people can practice change between meetings.

Her work draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and build new behaviors. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and client-centered methods to help people notice values and set meaningful goals. Mindfulness and Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are included when useful for regulating mood and handling crisis moments.

Aimee pays attention to family-of-origin and attachment issues when they are relevant to current struggles. She also addresses body image, codependency, communication problems, divorce and separation, and substance-related concerns. Her style is patient and direct, focusing on small steps that add up over time.

People meet her for short-term skill-building or longer work on deeper patterns. She speaks English and practices in North Carolina under the LCSW credential.

Practical approaches for online therapy and coping skills

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing them against real-life evidence. It helps people change patterns that keep anxiety, depression, or addictive behaviors going. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, teaches acceptance of difficult feelings while clarifying personal values and taking committed action toward those values. This approach is useful when someone wants to build a meaningful life despite ongoing struggles. Client-centered therapy centers the person's experience and emphasizes empathetic listening and collaboration to help people feel heard and make their own change.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and the problems at hand, then recommend or combine methods that fit. That collaborative process means techniques can shift over time as needs change and progress is made.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to match day-to-day demands. Video sessions allow face-to-face interaction for skill teaching and deeper conversation. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited and for those who prefer not to be on camera. Messaging and live chat work well for brief check-ins, homework support, or quick emotional regulation between meetings. These options make it easier to schedule regular work on stress, anxiety, trauma recovery, and addiction-related goals.
