I am a Licensed Clinical Social Work in the state of Florida who helps individuals, families, and communities cope with life's obstacles and relational conflicts to work towards thriving instead of surviving. My intent is to create a space that allows for the client to be their true self. The environment is one of mutual respects that promote respect and honest communication. The client is helped in understanding they have everything within to achieve in growing and to accomplish the goals established during treatment.My goal-setting approach is highly collaborative, individualized, and goal-oriented. I first try to learn about the you and how you developed your viewpoints. I then help you as the expert of YOUR life to create therapeutic goals. Ultimately, you will determine what success looks like in their life with me along the journey to support you navigate your journey.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor based in Florida. I received my masters in Marriage, Family and Therapy from Liberty University. I have been practicing for 7 years. I am passion about helping families, couples and individuals struggling with relational conflicts, anxiety, depression and childhood trauma. I have worked as an behavioral mental health therapist at an inpatient psychiatric hospital for over 4 years uslng trauma- focused acute interventions for patients and their families. I have worked in a faith- based residential men's substance abuse recovery treatment facility for over 3 years helping men rediscovery and regain their identity and productive place back in their society. Assist men with rebuilding spiritual, physical, mental/emotional, social/relational, and financial. I have worked passionately at a family counseling facility helping families, individuals, and groups resolve conflicts and develop positive family connections.

Since becoming a counselor, I have worked in a variety of community counseling settings. I have worked with clients from ages 3 through 80 and with individuals, couples, and families. With that breadth of experience, very little shocks or surprises me and I have gotten a pretty good sense of where the types of counseling that play to my strengths as a counselor overlap with the types of counseling that are helpful for my clients. This sense (along with learning about lots and lots of research into what helps people find and maintain mental health) has led to the following guiding principles that shape all the counseling I do: 1) The client is always in charge. I know a lot of things but you will always be the one who decides what you want to get out of counseling, how we work towards that goal, whether or not what we’re doing seems to be working, and when we’re done. 2) Change and health happen through relationships. No matter what you come in for, there are always relational implications of change and relational factors that contribute to whatever it is that you came to counseling to change. 3) Counseling should be efficient. Counseling has significant costs in time and money. I think the benefits far outweigh the costs but if I can give you the benefits while helping you save on the costs then I want to do that.

Client’s often say, “You wouldn’t understand” to therapists, and although I am fully aware that no one can FULLY understand another person’s story, I believe something that makes me unique as a therapist is that I am very familiar with struggle. I come from a large family, of which I am the eldest, and I took on a nurturing role very naturally and very young. I made my fair share of mistakes and landed myself in places I never thought I’d be, including domestic violence. As a result, I fought hard for my degrees, and my journey to licensure took longer than I wanted. However, today I am grateful, because I have learned a lot through my experiences. I have learned how to take pride in my entrepreneurship as a black woman, how to be a strong single mother, and ultimately, how to thrive under pressure. I have worked with a variety of populations, and I find that I am very interested in helping to provide the guidance I was lacking in my younger years. I am loyal, and I am a fighter. I want to help you fight your down darkness, and begin to let the light seep through. My specialties are working with teens and young women with trauma backgrounds. I find that I am able to get on the same level as a teen, help them feel understood, and bridge the gap between them and their parents. I am also very passionate about helping women heal through trauma, particularly domestic violence. Many people cannot comprehend that torment, and that makes healing even more difficult. I try to provide relief for my clients, and I stay genuine to who I am as a human being, which makes me relatable and nonthreatening. If this sounds like a good fit, please feel free to reach out!

Hi, I’m Amy, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor based in Florida. I love helping people feel more grounded, confident, and connected to themselves.

As a licensed clinical social worker and the founder of Reveal 2 Heal, I am dedicated to empowering women to navigate the complexities of trauma, anxiety, and depression. My mission is clear: to help you reveal the things that may be stopping your healing. In our work together, we’ll uncover what lies beneath the surface—those aspects of your life you may be avoiding—because I believe that true healing begins when we face what needs to be revealed.

My career began outside of mental health, in competitive corporate environments (Arthur Andersen, PwC, Korn Ferry) where I earned an MBA in International Marketing from George Washington University, completed postgraduate work at Emory University, and engaged in complex, multi-stakeholder projects across the U.S., Asia, and Europe. A decade ago, I shifted focus from business development and organizational performance roles to personal transformation. I have worked in a psychiatric hospital, residential treatment centers, and private practice, specializing in trauma resolution and identity restoration. My greatest learning experience was working with convicted felons for 3-years which, which by matter of necessity, forced me to learn and refine therapeutic techniques beyond anything I could have imagined. This combination of real world experience and advanced clinical training allows me to meet clients at an entirely different level than most therapists.
