Amy Freeman, LCSW, MD, LCSW-C

Amy Freeman is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW-C) with 11 years of professional experience working with young people and their families. She has focused much of her practice on adolescents and young adults ages 15 to 22 with developmental disabilities in non-public school settings, supporting both the students and their family systems.

Her work emphasizes close collaboration with multidisciplinary teams, including education staff, speech and occupational therapists, and behavior specialists, to assess needs and coordinate interventions that connect therapeutic goals to educational and daily life supports. This team-based approach helps identify practical strategies that address learning, communication, behavior, and emotional needs.

Freeman brings a nonjudgmental, accepting presence to the therapeutic relationship, creating a foundation for clients to explore challenges and develop healthier coping mechanisms. She uses evidence-informed approaches to help individuals and families reframe unhelpful thinking patterns and build skills for managing stress, mood, and interpersonal difficulties.

Her clinical perspective is grounded in supporting clients through transitions and obstacles by combining practical problem solving with attention to emotional growth. Throughout her work she prioritizes strengths-based planning that supports both individual progress and improved family functioning.
