She has pursued advanced training and extensive study in yoga and meditation, including trauma-informed yoga, Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction, and Integrative Restoration (iRest). Her clinical work has served a variety of populations, with particular emphasis on adoptive and birth parents, adoptees, youth at risk, and adolescents and adults navigating demanding academic programs and career choices.
People seek therapy with Amy for many reasons, such as a desire to create a more balanced and fulfilling life, build deeper relationships, or find relief from grief, loss, or trauma. She acknowledges the courage it takes to reach out for support and approaches each therapeutic relationship with respect for that step.
Amy uses a client-centered, goal-oriented approach and meets clients where they are on any given day. She regards each person as the expert on their own experience and offers guidance to help identify, set, and pursue meaningful goals. Her work integrates both talk-based and somatic therapies, and can include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and mindfulness practices. Sessions are tailored to each client’s needs, comfort level, and values.
Amy looks forward to supporting individuals as they work toward change and greater well-being.
Many people ask whether virtual therapy can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or adjusting to life changes, online therapy has been shown to be comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person sessions.
A significant benefit of remote care is flexibility - clients may choose the format that fits their life best, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This range of options makes it easier to attend sessions without major disruptions to daily routines.
Every therapist available is a licensed professional, and clients have the option to change therapists if they need a different fit. For many people, online therapy provides a practical, effective way to pursue mental health goals while accommodating the demands of work, family, and other responsibilities.
