I have been doing individual, group, and family therapy since I received my MSW degree in 2007, but I've worked in the field of social work since right out of high school. In my therapy practice, I draw from a wide variety of personal and career experiences which have taught me to hold emotional space and cultivate safety and unconditional positive regard for my clients. I began as a VISTA volunteer at a YWCA on the border of Detroit. After completing my BSW at Wayne State University I was hired into a program that provided in-home family therapy and case management for parents that were involved with CPS. Then I joined the Peace Corps and served in Kingston, Jamaica as a youth-at-risk volunteer. I completed my MSW degree at Western Michigan University after I returned to the US, and have worked in a variety of settings as a clinical therapist since then, including a Native tribe, a medium-security prison, rural schools, and within a medical clinic setting. I also teach yoga and am a reiki master, and I practice Native Tradition. My current perspective on counseling is that humanity is going through a massive evolution of consciousness. I am an empath which also informs my therapeutic approach. I enjoy blending scientific facts and ancient wisdom with storytelling when working with my clients. I live in a cottage in the woods, close to Lake Michigan, and I spend as much time in nature as possible. I care deeply about people and while I have many hobbies, mental health therapy has always been my passion. My family is full of mental illness, addiction, narcissism, and abuse and as a child I dreamed of being happy and helping others find their happiness too. I believe we all have an inner compass that can guide us. Mindfulness, CBT techniques, yoga, philosophy, art, music, and humor make up the majority of my approach with clients in an attempt to spark that connection with your inner compass.

I could not ask for a better therapist. Amy is very present and engaged during sessions. She offers insights, asks questions, and provides supplementary tools that are personalized and show how much she genuinely cares about understanding and helping you as a unique individual. I have seen very real progress in the past few weeks that I truly don't think I would have achieved as quickly and effectively without her support.

Amy is a godsend, using a conversational approach to therapy so it's like you're talking to a friend vs a person in a white coat. This is my very first therapy experience and she has done an amazing job at listening intently and being sensitive to all of my needs and validating things I've done right in times of self doubt. You're in good hands

Amy's voice alone is so calming. She is super good at listening until she feels it is appropriate to talk/ask me things. She has made me feel beyond supported and almost like a friend because she is so welcoming. She is definitely well versed in everything she states on her profile and has been extremely helpful into opening my eyes to the dynamics of my situations. Everyone needs an Amy!

Amy made my return to therapy as easy and comfortable as possible. She is a lovely person, kind, understanding and empathetic. She gave me a lot of thoughtful advice and insight on all topics I brought up with her. You can tell she cares a lot about her clients and wants the very best for them. After two months of weekly sessions with Amy, I feel that my mental health is in a much better space compared to where it was before. I couldn't have asked for a better therapist and would 100% recommend Amy.

Written on Feb 18, 2023 after therapy with Amy for 3 weeks on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship issues, self esteem, career difficulties, compassion fatigue, and adhd
I was overcome with emotions when it came to therapy especially with the cultural stigma men have with asking for and seeking mental health but Amy made me feel completely comfortable talking about my feelings and helping me with different ways to cope with my anxiety and anger issues. I would highly recommend her to anyone and everyone. She responds to my messages very urgently and she surpassed my expectations I had about starting therapy.
