Amy Thomas, LCSW

Amy Thomas is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with a master’s degree in social work from Boise State University and nine years of clinical experience. She has developed focused expertise supporting people who have survived trauma, who struggle with low self-esteem, and who navigate questions of sexuality, gender, and non-traditional relationship structures. Her training spans trauma, mood and personality disorders, eating disorders, and relationship difficulties, and she draws on that background to match interventions to each person’s needs.

Amy uses a flexible, individualized approach that may incorporate solution-focused techniques, Socratic dialogue, motivational interviewing, elements of dialectical behavioral therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness practices, and experiential options such as equine-assisted work when appropriate. She addresses a wide range of concerns including anxiety and depression, attachment and adjustment issues, attention differences, anger and control challenges, and family or interpersonal problems. Amy also works with people facing adoption and foster care matters, abandonment and attachment dilemmas, body image and eating issues, and intimacy or kink-related questions.

Outside of clinical work she enjoys riding horses, reading, and painting. Amy brings a collaborative, client-centered stance to therapy and works with individuals to build emotional resilience, improve relationships, and pursue a more satisfying life.
