Amy is a Licensed Professional Counselor and Certified Rehabilitation Counselor. She graduated from Maryville University in 2016 with a Master of Arts in Rehabilitation Counseling. Before making this complete career shift to follow her true calling, she completed her Bachelor of Science degree in Communications/Public Relations from Southeast Missouri State University and spent 20 years in marketing and management.

Amy specializes in helping people through important life transitions: adolescent development, divorced and blended family systems, college and career counseling, women's issues, and the mental health concerns that can accompany or hinder change.

Amy uses a strengths-based perspective to assist clients in recognizing maladaptive thought patterns and behaviors, identifying the changes in their control, and taking the steps toward the life they desire. Her integrative technique helps her to individualize treatments using a blend of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy, among others. Amy enjoys working with clients of all ages, with a special ability for connecting with teens and adults under 40. Young at heart and a pop culture enthusiast, Amy easily finds common ground to quickly build trust with a younger generation. Amy is passionate about social justice and diversity issues, and creates a safe space for people who are marginalized in any way.

Amy is an experienced clinical counselor, beginning as a hotline crisis counselor in 2014 and having also spent two previous years in private practice. Most recently, she dedicated four years as a high school counselor in a comprehensive setting for students of varying financial backgrounds, learning abilities, family dynamics, and mental health needs. As a Certified Rehabilitation Counselor, Amy is trained to help people with physical and developmental disabilities access community resources and live life to their full potential.

In her free time, Amy enjoys traveling, attending concerts, and collecting useless trivia facts.
