Hi and Welcome! My name is Amy Childers; I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with 14 years of counseling experience. I have experience working with many populations over the years. I am also specialized in the treatment of trauma and offer EMDR treatment. My approach is client centered eclectic, so I collaborate with my client to determine the best treatment approach and goals for success. I utilize Cognitive behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, and EMDR in my therapy practice. I currently provide therapy to ages 18 and up at this time. I look forward to meeting you.

First session

At the first session I will explain all the therapy basics. Please expect a very calming approach to getting to know you and your history.

Strengths

I am very calm and aim to create a safe place and will also use humor to create comfortability in my sessions. I am very passionate about working with trauma and helping others heal from their past expereinces. I am very familiar with law enforcement and Veterans stressors due to personal life experiences. My father is a marine who was in Vietnam and I have 2 people in my family who are law enforcement. I am capable of assisting you through those dark moments and specially trained to treat PTSD/trauma.

Ideal clients

I’m best positioned to serve clients who want a warm, nonjudgmental space to explore difficult emotions and relationship patterns, and are willing to practice skills outside sessions to accelerate progress toward clearer boundaries, improved mood, and healthier connections. I take pride in assisting young adults with life transitions and stressors. I have experience helping women work the post partum struggles and other women's issues.
