As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I believe that each family unit is unique. When positive growth or change is made by one member of the family, each member benefits.
I started my career in 1998 as a teacher for students with special needs and as a public school guidance counselor. In 2011, I decided to earn my LMFT degree as it was becoming more clear that our families and past experiences strongly shape decisions we make and behaviors we choose as adults.
My therapeutic approach varies as to what you need. Some people benefit from Solution-Focused, brief-type therapy, while others may need a more collaborative, educational approach. I offer EMDR for trauma/PTSD and Prepare-Enrich curriculum for couples' needs. I will be a supportive, empathetic listener and will take time to craft my services around your individual needs, whether that is working through events in your past or planning a healthy future. My goal is to empower you to become the best YOU!
Additional areas of focus: Addictions, Trauma and abuse, Grief, Intimacy-related issues, Eating disorders, Parenting issues, Anger management, Self esteem, Career difficulties, Compassion fatigue, ADHD

Amy was a wonderful introduction to online counseling! She is very personable and warm, which made it easier to jump right into the deep stuff. Amy paid attention to my story and helped me consider things I didn't see before, as well as affirm me where appropriate. I highly recommend Amy!

Amy is great, she is able to talk to my head in such a kind and helpful way. I am able to work though things much more quickly with her! Totally worth the investment.

After going to a psychologist for a few months and being unhappy with the help I was receiving I wanted to try an online therapy platform. Amy is the only therapist I’ve worked with on BetterHelp but even after 2 phone sessions I feel better understood and supported than I did in months of therapy with my past individual!

Amy is very insightful and kind. She also has experience of being an actual mom, and understanding about family life.
