Amy is awesome. She makes you feel very comfortable. It's just like having a conversation. Amy is very quick with great suggestions & techniques. As someone who has had a number of therapist, I'm truly glad to have found Amy.

I have never been to a therapy before in my life and didn’t know what to expect from a therapist. Amy was amazing. She listened, didn’t judge me, provided very helpful suggestions on how to reduce my anxiety. She really understood what I was going through and didn’t dismiss any of my feelings and emotions. She followed up with me, guided me, and gave me very helpful exercises to reduce my stress due to traumatic experience I had. I am very grateful to her.

She’s amazing! She listens and really understands what I’m saying! If something doesn’t work for me she finds another technique to try! She really is doing an amazing job at trying to find what works best for me!
