Over 25 years of Therapy Experience- Specialty areas: Anxiety, Depression, Trauma, Grief, Workplace Burnout, Stress, Life Transitions & Health Conditions
I have been fortunate to work in various roles over the course of my 25 plus years in the behavioral health field and to also gain training in evidence based practices that specifically treat anxiety, trauma and depression. I am committed to helping clients learn skills to improve their well-being and to find their joy. I believe therapy is a collaborative process and that we work together as a team. As your therapist, you can count on me to be supportive, interactive and direct in my communication with you. I specialize in working with individuals impacted by anxiety, trauma, depression, relationship issues, workplace burnout, life transitions, caregiving issues, and health conditions move towards creating and maintaining emotional wellness and meaning in their lives. I look forward to working with you! -Amy
