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. 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.

Get to know me

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

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.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

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.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

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.

My 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.

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.

She is so warm from the moment you talk to her. Peace is what I feel talking to her. A Calmness feeling is presented from her and rubs off to me and she does not judge me
