Amy has been incredible at helping me understand myself and deal with my past traumas and present anxieties. I’ve cried happy tears thinking about how much my mental health has transformed in the months I’ve been meeting with her. She is an incredible listener and she knows exactly what type of communication I need to feel relaxed, comfortable, and confident when opening up.
