Amy Nylund, LCSW

Welcome! I’m Amy — a mom and a therapist who specializes in supporting clients with anxiety, OCD,  pregnancy/postpartum related concerns, and life transitions. I also work with children ages 11+ experiencing a variety of concerns, and am available to support families of children of all ages via caregiver coaching.

I received my undergraduate degree from The College of William & Mary and my Master of Social Work from Boston College. Throughout my career, I have gained experience across a variety of settings, including inpatient care at McLean Hospital in Belmont, MA and school social work within Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia. Most of my professional experience, however, has been in outpatient therapy, where I have worked with children, adolescents, and adults.

What types of therapy do you offer?

I support clients with anxiety, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), pregnancy-related and postpartum mental health conditions, and parenting concerns. I work with children, adolescents, young adults, and young families. In my counseling sessions, I primarily use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Inference-Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (ICBT),  Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT).

What is your availability? How do I schedule a session?

I see clients on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Morning, afternoon, and evening slots are available. We'll begin with a free 15 minute consultation call to confirm that we're a good fit. Email me to get your consult scheduled!

Do you accept insurance?

I am an out-of-network provider. I also offer a limited number of reduced fee slots on my caseload. Check with your insurance plan - they may provide out-of-network benefits, and I can provide you with a superbill to assist with this.

What are your fees?

An intake session is $200. For adults, subsequent sessions are $165. For children, subsequent sessions are $180. Higher rates for children reflect included services like parent check-ins and collateral communication with schools, pediatricians, etc.
