Getting to know Amy George
I provide clients with an open and judgment-free space in which to explore, process, and heal emotional pain. A sense of safety throughout the therapeutic process is paramount to my practice. I utilize a strength-based, resilience-focused, collaborative approach that helps clients build a strong, empowered, and more cohesive sense of self.
I am an experienced clinician in the areas of trauma, major mood disorders, anxiety disorders, and conflict in relationships. The majority of my work has focused on vulnerable and at-risk populations such as women experiencing homelessness, individuals with addiction, histories of incarceration, HIV/AIDS, the transgender community, and children with trauma. I am an LGBTQIA+ affirming practitioner and understand the unique needs of these clients and their families.
I hold a Master's in Social Work from Smith College. I am experienced in multiple therapeutic approaches, specifically a holistic approach that nurtures the mind, body, and spirit.

More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
