About me

Open minded and non judgmental therapist with a safe place. Experienced with alternative lifestyles, unique situations and welcoming to all individuals. I use an eclectic approach to therapy as one size does not fit all. Counseling is a place to work toward a better and more fulfilling life, where goals are attained, communication is improved and relationships are strengthened.

I have over fourteen years experience helping professionals, parents, young adults, minorities, people involved in the criminal justice system, those with substance use issues and other addictions, and individuals experiencing trauma, natural or manmade disasters and homelessness. With a particular interest in sexual dysfunction and intimate relationship problems, I will accept you as you are, with unconditional positive regard.

Together we will work as a team partnership to establish goals and the steps to help attain those dreams.

I offer messaging, live chat or live phone sessions, typically between the hours of 5pm and 11pm central time, Monday through Friday and 12pm to 5pm on Sunday. You may expect me to respond to any messages as soon as possible each day.

Amie is wonderful, she really helped me come out of my comfort zone especially with socializing and dating, and I've grown so much in my time with her - can't thank her enough!

Amie has helped me on so many issues over the last few years. She helped me get through covid and having someone to talk to about tough subjects during that time was invaluable. She is always accommodating to my needs of appointment times and our sessions are often light and fun. I can't recommend Amie more highly.

Amie is the best! I’ve been her client for over a year, and I would recommend her to my friends if it wasn’t a conflict of interest. She is well-informed, knows the best practices, has a sense of humor, and so compassionate. She’s a treasure!!

Dealing with waiting for a heart transplant and many other issues that come with it, I cannot recommend her highly enough. Amie is gentle in her approach and has given me such sound advice and techniques to help me cope. I wish I did this sooner, but extremely grateful I got paired up with her.

I've worked with Amie for several months dealing with sever depression and other mental health issues as I have bipolar disorder 2, as well as some issues in my personal life that needed to be sorted out. From day 1, she was super professional, super helpful and extremely kind. English isn't my first language, though she always was patient with me trying to convey and describe something I'm going through and never had an issue with her not giving me the space and time. Now I'm doing GREAT and I felt the need to post this as she had a huge impact on me during my tough journey. I remember being hesitant in my first session so I chose live-messaging. Yet once I tried talking to her on the phone, all the anxiety and hesitation faded away as she is kind, optimistic and understanding. I highly recommend her!
