About Aimee

Aimee Paddock greets people who are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure about their next step. She offers straightforward support for stress, anxiety, depression, grief, low self-esteem, addiction concerns, and life transitions. Aimee invites parents and individuals to talk through practical problems and set small, achievable goals they can use right away.

Aimee is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, with more than two decades in mental health work. She has deep experience helping people cope with trauma, relationship and family concerns, sleep problems, compassion fatigue, and attention-related challenges.

Background and approach

Her background includes work with adoption and foster care issues, caregiver stress, domestic violence, and substance use concerns. In sessions she blends approaches that match the person in front of her. That may include cognitive behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thinking, skills from dialectical behavior therapy to manage intense emotions, and psychodynamic ideas to understand repeating patterns.

She also uses motivational interviewing to boost readiness for change and emotionally-focused ideas to strengthen important relationships. Practical skills are a common focus. Clients often learn breathing and relaxation exercises, communication tools, pacing strategies for big emotions, and goal-setting methods.

Aimee works with each person to build a plan that fits their life and priorities. She practices in Indiana and offers care in English. Sessions can be held by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging for people who prefer remote options.

Online support

How Aimee’s Approaches Work Online

Aimee commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy during online sessions. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on spotting and changing thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going, which helps with anxiety, depression, and sleep issues. Dialectical behavior therapy teaches practical emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and communication skills for intense feelings and relationship stress.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Aimee will listen to your goals and try methods that match your needs, then adjust what you do in session as progress is made. She treats the process as a collaboration so clients help shape which tools and strategies are used.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy fit busy lives. Video is useful for in-depth talk and skill teaching, phone works well when bandwidth is limited or you prefer not to be on camera, and messaging or live chat can be a good option for brief check-ins or practicing skills between sessions. These options let people schedule sessions around work, caregiving, or other responsibilities and keep continuity when travel or relocation happens.
