About Aimee
Aimee Paddock is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Indiana who helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, depression, addiction concerns, and everyday habits like sleep and coping. She works with individuals to set realistic goals and build skills that fit daily life. Her approach is practical and down-to-earth, focusing on small changes that add up over time.
With 23 years in the field and long experience as a licensed clinician, she draws on a range of therapeutic methods to match each person's needs. Sessions often concentrate on thoughts and everyday habits, communication skills, relaxation strategies, and problem-solving. She encourages clients to try concrete tools such as mindfulness, self-care routines, and goal-setting exercises.
Aimee uses several psychotherapy approaches to guide sessions, selecting techniques that suit the person's situation. She supports exploration of family of origin issues, relationship patterns, adoption and foster care topics, and challenges like codependency and caregiver stress. Trauma, domestic violence, and substance use concerns are also within her practice focus.
She emphasizes a nonjudgmental, respectful tone and works collaboratively to create an individualized plan. Progress is tracked through short- and longer-term goals, and she adjusts strategies as needs change. Aimee aims to empower people so they can make steady changes toward the life they want.
People can expect a calm, practical style that blends talk therapy with hands-on skills practice. The focus stays on usable strategies that fit into everyday life and help with thinking patterns and daily habits.

Approaches that guide online work and practical skills
Many clients find Cognitive Behavioral Therapy useful because it links thoughts, behaviors, and feelings. CBT helps people notice unhelpful thinking patterns and test new ways of responding to stress, sleep problems, anxiety, and depression. Dialectical Behavior Therapy adds skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication, which can help with intense emotions, relationship conflict, and impulsive behavior.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist works together with each person to decide whether CBT, DBT skills, or elements from other approaches fit best. Treatment plans and short- and long-term goals are reviewed and adjusted as needs change, so clients remain involved in choosing methods.
Confirm the session formats available before booking, as options are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, shorten travel time, and allow check-ins that match daily routines. Some formats are also more suited to brief coaching-style sessions, while others support longer, deeper work - the therapist will discuss what arrangement fits the client's goals and schedule.
