Hello and welcome. I am Ms. Amie Dunn. My practiced is geared towards bringing the highest level of quality care and support throughout the healing process. My extensive time in the field has provided a strong network of services that I partner with for my patients. I have a core believe that no one should have to walk through pain alone. I am not your traditional counselor. As a trauma and crisis counselor you will always have access to me when needed. My work does not stop after each session. I work with my patients and no one should have to go without care because of financial hardship. I am here to provide the services needed to grow and heal. I spent 20 years in the field providing care to families and children through Child Safety providing counseling services to those in need. The main goal of keeping families together or finding safe places for each person I served provided safe and honest care through full transparency . After my own traumatic experience brought me out of the field, I used my new personal experiences and further education to aid in Head Trauma, Chronic Pain and Illness and much more. I teach courses and coaching to professionals, athletes and first responders. If you are ready to heal, I am ready to serve. I look forward to helping each person reach their goals and succeed.
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
Patients start by introductions, rapport building and gathering background information to ensure treatment is geared towards the patients needs and goals. **Please contact this provider directly for scheduling, so we can ensure you get a good time and day that works best for all parties. I can be reached on this platform through messages. Please leave a detailed response so we can schedule you accordingly. Thank you.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
I keep it real. I do not sugar coat or pretend I know all. I will learn with you if needed. I do not believe patients should be in treatment forever or I am doing something wrong. I am car lover. I use this as a frame work for my patients; allowing a form of imagery where I put my patient in the front seat of their favorite car and Ms. Amie is in the backseat with a map. We ride together and if you get lost, I am right there to assist.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
Each patient will build their own treatment plan with this provider to ensure it meets their own needs. I am open to all feedback as that allows me to grow and provider more care to the specific needs of my patients. I am always learning and encourage my patients to find and use their voice.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is the base modality and I incorporate other modalities geared to the patients needs. I am trained and certified in Art and Play Therapy, Attachment Based, Trauma Informed, Adoptions, Crisis Management, Coaching, Gestalt, Couples, LGBT, Person-Centered, Supportive Therapy. Family therapy is also available.
