WELCOME.... My practice is called Conversations with Amy... the reason is that I want our time together to feel like you are having a conversation with a close trusted friend. I always want my clients to feel seen and heard without judgment. I blend honesty, kindness, humor and lightheartedness to explore your "humanness" in a compassionate way... sometimes we find ourselves laughing our way through our tears and pain... other time we may need to have someone just sit with us... every experience is different and valid. As a therapist I am eclectic in the way I gather information to learn who you are, however my approach to life as a therapist and human is "Solution Focused". I want to help you discover what is keeping you from having a life that you love and brings you Happiness, Acceptance and Peace! What I mean by “Solution Focused” is that I have an innate ability to identify behaviors, patterns, thoughts and beliefs that contribute to your lack of meaningful change with humor and kindness. My background, in short, I am a LMHC-QS in Florida & LPC in South Carolina, I have an AA in Sociology, BS in HR Admin and a MS in Counseling from NSU. I have been practicing as a therapist for over 11 years. I have spent most of my life dedicated to helping other people experience Happiness and Peace.

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by state rather than a city?

Why filter by state rather than a city? When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in the state. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across the entire state. If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near your address.

Will my therapist take insurance?

When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on a specific issue?

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need.

What are the "Clients say I'm" badges?

Grow Therapy asks patients about their experience with therapists after they have had a certain number of sessions. After enough responses, we add those characteristics to their profiles to help you find the best online therapists for you. We're still working on collecting this information from all our therapists.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

What to expect during your first session?

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs.

Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center. Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
