“Amy is simply incredible - I have worked with quite a few different therapist over the years, and she is by far my favorite. She offers support and also challenges me to find the answers myself. She also was able to diagnose me with something that was a complete game changer, and looking back I'm not sure how previous providers missed that diagnosis. Highly, highly recommend.”

I felt comfortable speaking with Amy from our first few sessions. We speak openly and candidly without any reservations. Amy is professional, listens well and provides me with honest feedback and beneficial advice. I highly recommend Amy for anyone in need of someone to confide in and assist with any life issues that are negatively impacting your mental or physical well being.

She is very thoughtful in her approach and gives you space to dialogue. Is very helpful in being a calm presence, especially when you’re feeling scattered. Would definitely recommend.

She is quite patient with my explanations and story telling while I dive into my past. She carefully shares her view within my interpretation. Amy displayed focus with how I feel and awaits when I am ready to speak in our sessions. My pace is respected and that makes me feel better when I express myself

Amy is really understanding and compassionate. I feel completely safe sharing any thoughts I have, whether good or bad, with her. I feel safe telling her if something she said hurt me and I know that she will be understanding about it. I have had lots of therapists in the past and they have all let me down and have not been a safe space for me, Amy is different. She is the best therapist I’ve ever had and I know that she cares about me. I couldn’t ask for a better therapist.

Having never engaged in therapy I was nervous to start the process but Amy was very kind and comforting all while providing guidance in a constructive way. She asked what my goals were and we are working towards accomplishing those goals.
