About me
I am devoted and passionate about my work and truly enjoy helping people find their happiness. I am a fully licensed Clinical Social Worker (LMSW) and a Certified Advanced Alcohol and Drug Counselor (CAADC). I earned my Master's degree in Social Work from Wayne State University and graduated from the University of Michigan with a Bachelor of Arts in Social Work and a Bachelor of Arts in Sociology. I have over ten years of experience working in the mental health field and have specialized in Substance Use issues for the last five years.
I provide professional, confidential counseling to individuals and families. I specialize in Substance Use therapy and Co-occurring disorders, utilizing the Cognitive Behavioral Model and Stages of Change/Motivational Interviewing. In addition, I have extensive knowledge in treating disorders such as anxiety, depression, and PTSD. I am now trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). I provide a compassionate, comfortable environment and use multiple therapeutic techniques to develop strengths and new coping skills. I take great pride in creating a unique and specific treatment plan designed for each individual or family to succeed.

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Amy Culbert-Burgess. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
So far she's been very kind and listens to my concerns and has seemed confident that we can work through all of my issues, however I feels it's too soon for a full on review so I will further my review after a few more sessions.

A key part of Amy’s therapeutic practice is to normalize what you are going through by relating your experience to her personal life, where she indicates that she has experienced something similar to what you have in order to make you feel less isolated. While this is not an approach that works for me as someone who prefers to have a therapist who asks questions that lead me to pull on my own experiences to address what I am navigating, if you are someone who is looking to have this form of therapeutic relationship Amy is very friendly and non-judge mental.

She’s great! I really like her and feel comfortable talking to her.
