With over 15 years of experience, she specializes in trauma, relationship issues, and family conflict, offering a supportive and inclusive environment for diverse family structures and identities, including the LGBTQ+ community. Amy's practice integrates a variety of therapeutic approaches, including Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and mindfulness. She also provides Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP), which is available both virtually and in clients' homes, allowing her to address complex needs with innovative methods. In addition to therapy, Amy is trained in Divorce Mediation, providing a peaceful and financially responsible alternative to traditional divorce proceedings. Her practice offers flexibility, with in-person sessions available in West Dundee, Illinois, and telehealth options throughout her licensed states.

Over the past twelve years I have worked in the mental health field in a variety of capacities, including inpatient units, residential facilities, and day treatment settings. My experience and training with children, adults, and families in these settings has given me a practical knowledge and understanding when working alongside my clients to facilitate change. A significant part of my experience has been working with adults and adolescents coping with past trauma to adjust and move past stuck points, decrease depression, and move forward on the life they want to live. I strive to meet my clients in the circumstances they are in and make a collaborative effort to overcome the challenges they face. I utilize Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) in the treatment of PTSD, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Behavioral Activation (BA) for depression, and Exposure Response Prevention (ERP) for OCD. Forming relationships with clients and being witness to their progress and resiliency is something that has been rewarding. Outside of work I enjoy backpacking, kayaking, reading, and swimming.

Is worry, fear, or physical symptoms of anxiety holding you back? Feel like your mind is in a million places at once? Challenges with procrastination? Has substance use become a way to cope? Have you noticed it affecting your relationships? I support my clients with anxiety, low mood, ADHD and substance abuse find their way forward. My specialties include substance abuse, anxiety, ADHD and stress management. I am trained as an art therapist and value creative expression as a form of healing. I use cognitive behavioral therapy to address thought and behavior patterns.

We are an online counseling group therapy practice where you can receive the mental health treatment you deserve from your comfy surroundings! We offer phone and video counseling, on your time.

If you’re reading this, I want to honor the courage it takes to seek support—your journey toward healing and wholeness matters deeply. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor, and I specialize in helping individuals navigate trauma, anxiety, depression, substance use, and complex family dynamics. My approach is rooted in traditional, evidenced-based therapeutic interventions, but I also believe healing can be creative, expressive, and deeply personal. Whether it’s through music, painting, storytelling, or even video games, I welcome the unique interests and strengths you bring into the space we will share. Therapy with me is not one-size-fits-all—it’s tailored to you. I serve clients across Georgia, Alabama, Virginia, Texas, Wisconsin, and Louisiana, offering inclusive, culturally responsive care that honors your identity, your struggles, and your story. Wherever you find yourself today, I’d be honored to walk alongside you toward your healthiest self.

Everyone has a story, and I believe good mental health care starts by truly listening to it. As a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I approach each patient as a unique individual with their own experiences, strengths, and goals. My role is not just to diagnose or prescribe, but to partner with you in understanding what you're going through and finding practical ways to help you feel better and move forward. I provide telehealth services to adults across Wisconsin, making care accessible from the comfort and privacy of your own space. If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply ready for change, you're not alone—and I'm here to help support you.

I approach each problem with curiosity. I seek to offer a warm, genuine, accepting and safe environment to allow my clients to express themselves honestly. I prefer to use a collaborative approach, integrating healing with daily living. I am a mother of two daughters aged 24 and 17. I started my journey toward seeking to serve others more than 30 years ago with an undergraduate degree in Social Work. I had a deep desire to address the challenges associated with cultural adjustment and mental health. To enhance my understanding of culture, I chose to pursue a Master's in Anthropology soon after completing my undergraduate degree. This launched my career into working with new arrival families in a variety of settings. After spending time raising my family, I completed my long term goal of obtaining a counseling degree in 2013. Since then, I have worked in many different settings and with clients from a variety of groups and stages of life, including community based care, inpatient, Intensive Outpatient, Partial Hospitalization, and crisis care and support in a medical setting. I have served both adolescents and adults. At this time in my career, I seek to continue to support adults of all ages and backgrounds.

You’re stronger than you think! I want to draw out those strengths so you can be your best self. I am supportive of your struggles and fears, and I will also challenge you to smash those fears and deconstruct the obstacles that seem to stand in your way. I won’t be passive or allow you to be passive about overcoming your unique challenges. No sitting back and asking you, “So how does that make you feel?” We’re going to unpack your life experiences together.

***ONLINE COUNSELING AVAILABLE*** At times, life can feel overwhelming, but you don't have to bear the burden alone. I have 22 years in the behavioral health field as an executive, teacher, consultant and dually-licensed clinician helping people move beyond their burdens to get on with their lives. I have been providing clinical services since 2005, and I'm a member of the Association for Contextual Behavioral Science along with the American Counseling Association. My experience includes treating depression, anxiety, panic, stress, anger, trauma, grief and problematic substance use across the lifespan. My primary therapeutic orientation is a mindfulness-based treatment known as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. Instead of trying to control or get rid of unwanted experiences, this approach develops the flexibility to respond differently so that you get unstuck from what is holding you back. It is an inherently person-centered, strength-based modality. Sometimes our struggles seem like we are in a tug-of-war with our own feelings, thoughts, pain, suffering, past and worries. At times, it may even feel like it's too much because you still haven't won that war, no matter what you've tried. Together, we can learn how to drop the rope so that you can get on with what is truly important - your life!

Are you feeling overwhelmed by having too much to do and think about? There may be days when you ask yourself, "how can I handle all of this?" I would like to offer you some additional tools that you can use to address the problems that you can't stop thinking about. My goal is that you leave my virtual office feeling more like yourself again with more clarity and confidence in tackling life's challenges.

I empower individuals to better manage their lives by helping them identify and restructure boundaries within relationships, work, hobbies/interests, and other obligations. We achieve this through assertiveness, self compassion, and esteem/confidence building. Together, we’ll discover what’s been getting in the way of you being the best version of yourself. I utilize a strength-based, client-centered, and integrative approach to working with my clients. We will work collaboratively to develop an individualized treatment plan to meet your personal goals to improve your overall well being. I look forward to connecting and welcome the privilege of walking alongside you as you discover your best self.

My therapeutic approach is rooted in the belief that creativity is a powerful tool for self-expression and healing. I strive to create a safe and non-judgmental space where individuals can explore their emotions, break through barriers, and tap into their inner strength. Every person is unique, and my goal is to tailor my therapeutic techniques to meet the specific needs and preferences of each client. Expressive art therapy provides an alternative form of communication, particularly beneficial when traditional verbal expression may feel limiting. Artistic expression allows for the articulation of emotions, experiences, and narratives that may be challenging to express through words alone. The focus is on the process of creation rather than the end result, allowing for a more profound and authentic exploration of emotions.

It's okay to accept help, and it’s important to extend grace to yourself during these difficult times. Our work together will be collaborative, and I’ll tailor our approach to meet your unique needs. I take an eclectic approach to therapy, drawing from various methods to find what works best for you. My areas of focus include trauma, multicultural issues, relationship dynamics, stress, anxiety, mood disorders, and depression. I am dual credentialed as a substance abuse counselor, and I have experience supporting individuals through personality disorders, domestic violence, and abuse. I believe that understanding the root cause of challenges is essential to healing and self-awareness. I am an ally to the LGBTQIA+ community and a safe space for people of color.
