Amie Diminico, LMHC

Amie Diminico is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Massachusetts. She brings 12 years of clinical experience and a practical, family-centered perspective to therapy. Her background includes work in community mental health and running individual, group, and couples sessions.

Amie trained at Northeastern University, earning both a Bachelor of Science and a Master of Arts in Counseling Psychology. She spent much of her career in community mental health settings where she coordinated multidisciplinary teams. That work included helping people connect with employment resources and building treatment plans that address everyday needs.

Her approach is straightforward and goal oriented. Amie uses tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice unhelpful thinking and try different behaviors. She also draws on acceptance and commitment therapy and attachment-based ideas to support values-driven changes and healthier relationships.

Amie is comfortable addressing common life stressors such as anxiety, depression, parenting strain, grief, relationship and intimacy issues, and substance concerns. She helps people break problems into manageable steps and set concrete goals they can work toward between sessions.

Sessions are conversational and collaborative. Amie focuses on practical strategies and clear next steps. She aims to help people identify strengths, build skills, and regain a sense of control in everyday life.

How online approaches and therapy methods work together

Amie uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people identify and change thinking and behavior patterns that contribute to stress and anxiety. CBT focuses on clear skills such as tracking thoughts, testing assumptions, and practicing new behaviors to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning.

She also uses acceptance and commitment therapy to help people clarify their values and take steps toward a meaningful life even when difficult feelings remain. ACT emphasizes mindfulness, acceptance of inner experience, and committed action toward what matters to the person.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Amie will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before, then recommend techniques to try together. That plan can change as progress is made and new needs appear.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video works well for in-depth conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can fit a quick check-in or when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging can support short updates, homework check-ins, or ongoing coaching between sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into work and family life while keeping treatment consistent over time.
