Amy Schere
Licensed Clinical Social Worker Associate (LCSWA)
I welcome clients from all walks of life! My therapeutic approach is client-centered, holistic, and aims to address minds and bodies together as one.
My role is to listen to your story, to witness your struggles and successes, and to empower you to make the changes you want. With a background working as a healthcare provider for the past decade, I understand how closely linked the mind and body are. My therapeutic approach is client-centered, holistic, and aims to address minds and bodies together as one. Additionally, I practice from an anti-oppressive, body positive/Health at Every Size, inclusive perspective. I use modalities such as Internal Family Systems therapy, also known as “parts work”, Acceptance & Commitment Therapy, Exposure & Response Prevention for OCD, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Pain Reprocessing Therapy, .
