Amy has been great. Connected with her on our first session after trying a few other therapists over the years. Very helpful, she is the first therapist who I feel really listened to me about some childhood and adult concerns.

Amy has helped me tremendously in the time she has been my therapist. She made me realize things I've never considered and I learned how to show compassion for myself as well as other. I recommend Amy highly. I was lost and she put me on my path to finding myself.
