Hi there, I’m Amy. I’m an MSW Psychotherapist who is passionate about holding space for healing & transformational experiences. From a young age I’ve known that offering therapeutic care is my calling. I bring genuine curiosity, radical compassion & attunement to the clients who I support.

In my personal journey, I’m drawn to exploring non-ordinary states of consciousness (meditation; self-hypnosis; yoga; psychedelic & spiritual exploration) & the invitation into deeper awareness that these states evoke.

I offer a holistic & integrative style of therapy, drawing on various schools of thought & techniques to support the unique needs of each client. I believe that when we slow down & step into a therapeutic space, we gain deeper access to our innate wisdom. To learn more about my background & offerings visit my website or reach out to connect.
