Eden Amis, LCSW

WELCOME

As a therapist, I strive to create a space where you feel genuinely seen, heard, and respected. My approach is rooted in authenticity, warmth, and validation. I believe healing begins when we feel safe enough to show up as our full selves. I also believe in the power of humor to make the therapeutic process feel more human, approachable, and even enjoyable.

While I’ve worked with individuals across the lifespan, I have a particular passion for supporting pre-teens and teens, LGBTQ+ individuals, and those looking to build healthier boundaries and communicate their needs with greater clarity and confidence. Communication is one of my favorite things to explore in therapy and I love helping clients find and strengthen their voice.

I take a strengths-based, person-centered approach to help clients develop resilience, self-compassion, and self-advocacy. My work draws from evidence-based modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), Seeking Safety, and somatic and polyvagal-informed practices. I offer down-to-earth, accessible education about the mind-body connection to support real, lasting change.

Originally from Seattle, Washington, I moved to North Carolina nearly eight years ago to pursue my degrees—and to soak up the sunshine and beaches! Outside of therapy, I enjoy a wide range of creative hobbies, including competitive dance, art projects, and fostering kittens (you’ll likely meet one or two in our sessions!). I’m also a proud nerd who loves pop culture and diving into the latest video games.

Whether you're new to therapy or returning to it, I’ll meet you exactly where you are—with openness, curiosity, and zero judgment. You don’t have to take the next step alone. I’d truly love to hear from you!
