About me

When life gives you lemons, make lemonade! I am a licensed clinical social worker and enjoy helping others find that resolution to whatever stressors they are facing. I take a positive outlook approach and set my clients up for success! We do everything in “baby” steps because we want to succeed. I don’t allow my clients to set unrealistic goals and strive to help them find success in even the smallest things in life!

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

In our first session I want a chance to get to know you and why you’ve reached out for therapy. I want you build rapport and allow you to get to know me a little bit too! We will identify some areas you’d like to focus on first so that I can create a treatment plan and set you up for success!

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

Having personal experience in so many of the areas that I focus on with clients is one of my greatest strengths. When you can walk the walk and not just talk the talk, it can make a difference in how one approaches and treats a client. I’m able to develop a treatment plan that will set you up for success!

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I love working with people of all ages but prefer teens to young adults. Some of my favorite issues to address are career challenges/choices, adoption related issues, parenting struggles, anxiety and depression. I want clients that want to be in therapy and are committed to the process.

Amy is amazing. She has really helped me work through things and also helped me understand more about myself that I wasn't sure about. She can relate with you about alot of things and that the part I enjoy most.
