Clinical Social Work Practice – Amy Hagerstrom Therapy PLLC
Amy Hagerstrom Therapy PLLC is a somatic-focused clinical social work practice serving adults in Florida and Illinois through fully online sessions. Amy Hagerstrom holds licensure as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in both states, carrying Florida License SW 23332 and Illinois License 149026921. She also holds the designation of Somatic Experiencing Practitioner (SEP), a post-graduate credential in the Somatic Experiencing trauma resolution method. The practice operates entirely via telehealth, with no in-person office location listed on the site.
The clinical approach centers on body-based therapy. The site describes Somatic Experiencing as a model developed to address the physiological dimensions of stress and trauma by working with the nervous system rather than relying exclusively on verbal or cognitive techniques. Alongside Somatic Experiencing, services include integrative mental health therapy, the Safe and Sound Protocol, and the Rest and Restore Protocol. These approaches are characterized on the site as attending to both mind and body, with the aim of supporting clients whose nervous systems feel persistently activated or caught in chronic stress cycles.
Stated specialty areas include trauma therapy, anxiety therapy, and midlife crisis therapy. The practice describes serving thoughtful adults navigating chronic stress, burnout, and emotional overwhelm. The site characterizes this population as people who feel something is always “on” beneath the surface, even during outwardly stable periods, and frames the goal of treatment as helping clients build resilience and develop a greater sense of safety in their bodies.
Geographic reach spans several Florida communities, including Fort Lauderdale, Boca Raton, Delray Beach, and West Palm Beach, as well as the Chicago, Illinois area. Because all sessions are online, the practice can serve licensed-state clients regardless of physical location within Florida or Illinois.
A complimentary 10-minute phone consultation is bookable through Calendly. A dedicated fees and FAQ page covers rates and insurance details not published on the main page. The year of establishment is not stated on the site.
