About Amary
Dr. Amary Alcide is an LCSW in Florida with 16 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, parenting strain, self-esteem problems, grief, mood disorders, career challenges, and compassion fatigue. She also supports issues like chronic illness, caregiving stress, body image, attachment concerns, and blended family dynamics.
She uses a practical, skills-focused approach. Sessions emphasize noticing unhelpful thoughts and habits and trying different ways of responding. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is one of the methods she draws on alongside attachment-based and client-centered strategies.
Her work aims to turn broad goals into concrete action steps. She uses research and measurable techniques to help clients set clear goals and test what works in daily life. That often means practicing new communication moves, shifting routines, and experimenting with behavior changes between sessions.
Dr. Alcide has a background in academic research and interdisciplinary practice. That background informs a preference for evidence-informed tools applied in straightforward ways. She helps people translate theory into doable plans they can use at home and at work.
Her style is direct and structured. Sessions commonly include skill practice, homework, and regular check-ins on progress. The focus is on helping people manage symptoms, improve relationships, and build routines that support wellbeing.
To begin, she asks people to clarify a few concrete goals. From there she and the client track small, measurable steps and adjust approaches based on what the client reports about real life results.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Dr. Alcide uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. CBT involves setting clear goals, practicing small changes, and reviewing what worked in daily life. Attachment-Based Therapy is used to look at patterns in relationships and how past bonds shape current responses; it helps with communication and trust issues.Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. That can mean prioritizing symptom-focused CBT tools at first, then bringing in attachment-based perspectives for relationship work.
