“Amy Royal has gone above and beyond my expectations. She is kind, attentive, counsels without just "telling me what to do". She remembers things I told her in past sessions. She offers great insight without being pretentious. I really feel cared about in the sessions. I'm so glad I found Sailor and was matched with Amy.”

Getting to know Amy Royal
Hello! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) available to clients in both Tennessee and North Carolina. I bring both personal and professional experience to my practice, where I specialize in helping older adults navigate life's stressors and transitions. This can include grief, loss, caregiver stress, depression, anxiety, adjusting to new situations or environments, redefining purpose, dealing with adult children, coping with chronic illness, phase of life changes, and more. I have a passion for this work and for helping clients find clarity and peace in navigating life's challenges.
What should a new client know about working with you?
My approach is welcoming, warm, collaborative, and unique to each client. Creating a safe, supportive and "no pressure" environment. For you to feel free to share your doubts, concerns, challenges, and stories is a priority. Whether this is your first experience in therapy or you are looking for a fresh perspective, the time we set aside is for you. I believe you already possess all you need to cope with life's difficulties. Together, we can work toward helping you see that for yourself.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
In our first session, we'll take the time to get to know each other and discuss what brought you to therapy. This is a relaxed, supportive conversation—there's no pressure to share more than you're comfortable with. We'll also talk about how therapy can work, what to expect moving forward, and we'll begin identifying goals for therapy that feel meaningful to you. My priority is to ensure you feel heard, respected, and at ease as we begin our work together.
