Amy Gregor, LCSW

Immediate Availability for Parent Consults and EMDR clients 

Amy Gregor is co-owner of Queen City Counseling & Consulting. Amy is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Masters in Social work and brings over 10 years of field experience focusing on mental health. Amy has significant experience working with anxiety, depression, self-harm, suicidal thoughts, and trauma and uses a combination of approaches and techniques that best fit the needs of her clients. Amy has a strong CBT background and has been trained to incorporate DBT skills into her practice. In addition, Amy has a passion for working with trauma survivors and is trained in the Trauma Resiliency Model and EMDR. She is a member of EMDRIA and is currently pursuing full EMDR certification.

Amy received her Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology from North Carolina State University. She began her career working in mental health and substance use in New York City. With a growing passion for helping others, Amy returned to New York University and received her Masters in Social Work with a concentration in trauma and forensic social work. At NYU, Amy worked with trauma victims navigating the legal system to provide support and trauma therapy as well as working in a community mental health agency. After returning to NC in 2013, Amy continued her career at both an inpatient behavioral health unit and a partial hospitalization program, both of which focused on teen and adolescent populations.

Although Amy has a strong passion for working with adolescents and teens, she recognizes the need for additional support through major early adulthood transitions, particularly transitions to college and preparing to transition from college to a career. As a result, Amy works with clients ages 13 to 27 in individual sessions to address anxiety, stress, and other mental health issues that come with these major life stages. Amy supports and encourages the parent child relationship and the important role parents play in their teens’ recovery. With this in mind, Amy often encourages the incorporation of family meetings and family check-ins throughout the treatment process. Amy is licensed to provide telehealth services to both North Carolina and South Carolina residents.

You will likely see Amy’s therapy dog, Callie, around the office and she may even be incorporated into session if or when appropriate.
