Amy has an uncanny ability to zero in to the “heart” of the matter and offer practical, thoughtful advice that “sticks”. I can’t say enough good things about her approach and the results that I’ve experienced based on her kind, but direct feedback and coaching. Thank you Amy!

Amy has been so helpful as I explore my childhood trauma and begin to move on from it. She really listens to not just what I say, but the way in which I say it. She is able to look past my coping mechanisms and see how much I am hiding from both others and myself. I always feel so empowered after our sessions! Always impressed with how much she gets me.
More about Amy
- 21 years' experience
- Female
- LICSW
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 20 years of working in the field. During my career, I have had the pleasure of working with various populations and issues including life adjustments, mood disorders, relationship issues, chronic pain conditions, and trauma-related issues in both military and civilian settings. I am trained and certified in the Evidence-Based modalities, and find they are a good base to use along with a holistic approach to mental health care.
I believe that mental health is a process of finding the right treatment fit for each person, and working as a team with my clients to determine the goals for counseling. I see my role as a counselor as being an "educated compassionate guide" who is there to assist my clients to find their way out of what is holding them back and to provide them with the tools they need to achieve the life and relationships that they desire.

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.

- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Amy has been the most client-focused counselor that I have spoken to. She listens to my concerns and helps me work to get to the root of my issues that I'm dealing with in my day-to-day life. She's helped me come to terms with why I feel the way I feel in certain moments and has begun to help me work through those traumatic moments. She really is supportive and a great listener.
Amy has been the best therapy experience I've ever had. I feel like I'm making progress.
Very knowledgeable and empathetic. Wonderful counselor
This is the first time I really feel like I've connected with a Therapist - it's been a long search until now. Her summary of me after one session was spot on and she has been helping me ever since.
When I first signed up through Better Help I was nervous; I’d never tried virtual counseling before and wondered if I’d feel comfortable opening up over a phone call or video chat. But after my first session with Amy, I knew I had made the right choice. Amy is kind, straight forward and easy to talk with. I’m so glad I tried Better Help!
Amy is very helpful and understanding. She has really helped me with my anxiety. She has provided me with great tools to help with my anxiety. She is friendly and very knowledgeable. I would recommend her to anyone who needs help with issues relating to anxiety.
