Hello!
I am a licensed clinical professional counselor with over 12 years of experience serving many people in an array of environments. I have worked with people struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, relational conflict in couples, families and blended families. I love to help people find the root issue of their problems and symptoms. We will heal those things deep inside to reveal true self apart from the hurt and pain. My desire is for people to live a life with more freedom, joy and purpose so they may connect with their true identity and live in their purpose.
My therapy style is warm, inviting and engaging. I will respect and validate you as we go through this journey to healing and freedom. Some of my therapy approaches include: cognitive-behavioral, person-centered, solution-focused, dialectical behavioral therapy, trauma-informed and finding your true identity.
We will do a lot of work healing from the past/current emotional turmoil and wounds, layer by layer.
I recognize this first step may be difficult so please be kind to yourself, don’t judge and have patience. You WILL find healing, freedom and joy. I am excited for the opportunity to work with you and help you heal and reveal the person you are meant to be.
Thank you for your consideration!
Amy

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
