Hello! Congratulations on your decision to seek personal growth and support! I'm a Licensed Professional Counsellor (LPC) based in New Jersey. I received my master's degree in Psychological Counseling from Monmouth University and have been practicing for 22 years.

Having provided counseling for the past 22 years, I've developed techniques for helping you identify the root cause of your challenges and create a tailored plan that leads to measurable progress.

I help adults struggling with anxiety, depression, life transitions, and relationship challenges. I provide a warm, safe, and encouraging space for adults to learn skills to negotiate challenging emotions and life situations.

First session

In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.

Ideal clients

I enjoy working with adults who are interested in improving their situations. My clients are eager to improve but need support to develop the tools to make this goal a reality. They often feel stuck, overwhelmed, and anxious about their situations.

Treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) is an evidence-based talk therapy approach that I use to address a variety of concerns. CBT involves modifying thought patterns, our conscious and unconscious beliefs, our attitudes, and, ultimately, our behavior, to help us face difficulties and achieve our goals.

Dialectical Behavior (DBT)

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is an evidence-based talk therapy approach that helps manage intense emotions using effective tools for success.

Amy was warm, open-minded and solution-focused which I liked. I have tasks to work on for my next session which will be very though-provoking.

In the first session she really made me feel heard and helped me dig deeper into some of the issues that I have.

Amy was very kind understanding and non judgmental. Being able to share openly was so important, and the feedback that I received gave me food for thought.
