About Amy
These are difficult times, and I want to offer you a place to be your authentic self. This is counseling without judgement. If you need support with the many challenges life can bring, I would love to help you find more ease, joy, and acceptance. My clinical interests include addiction, family systems, relational concerns, and trauma, among others. I am open to working with adult individuals, couples, and families. I have experience working with clients in residential Substance Use Disorder (SUD) treatment as well as with their loved ones. I want to meet you where you're at, and help you connect with what matters most to you.
I believe we all deserve compassion and the chance to grow, heal, and change. It is my intention to listen deeply and attune to your unique needs. I want to explore what gives meaning to your life and how I might be helpful. I seek to create an environment where we can work toward growth that is in alignment with your values. My clients tell me I offer acceptance, insight, and a sense of humor. Authenticity is a core principle of mine and I am relational in style. I work to create a warm, collaborative space where you feel seen, heard, and respected. I am influenced primarily by Existential-Humanistic theories as well as Relational-Cultural Therapy, ACT, and Somatic practices. I can help you get to know yourself better, tune in to your experience, and connect to your inner wisdom.
Prior to counseling, I worked in the performing arts. That experience grounds my work in mindfulness and creativity. I have studied yoga and meditation for over 20 years, strengthening my personal practice and building my somatic awareness. I will bring a curiosity to our collaboration that orients from a social justice and multicultural perspective, which means that we will consider all aspects of your lived experience. From this holistic perspective, we will take time to explore how counseling can best serve you.
