Hi there, I'm Amy!

I use a strengths-based and trauma-informed approach, in which you are the expert who holds the tools needed to move towards the life you seek. I enjoy working with pre-teen to older adults to help navigate life stressors and challenges and to build the life you desire.

My focus

I have worked in middle schools, crisis observation units, mobile crisis teams, and outpatient and inpatient settings. I have worked with clients ages 4 to 88 with concerns including anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, psychosis, substance use, OCD, ADHD, PTSD, and various life stressors and transitions.

My approach

I use a person-centered and strengths-based approach. I utilize Solution Focused Brief Theory, Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Trauma-informed CBT, Mindfulness, and Polyvagal Theory. I provide psychoeducation and resources relevant to your goals, which may include at-home exercises to practice skills.
