Hellertown was named after its founder, Pioneer and first settler, Christopher Heller in 1742. The borough has a population of just over 5800 people and lies in the county of Northampton, Pennsylvania in the Saucon Valley. It is home to the popular Lost River Caverns, which brings tourists from all over to visit each year.

Living in a tourist town can sometimes be stressful, especially during tourist season when you are sitting in traffic. However, there is no need to get stressed out. If you are feeling anxious or have any other emotional or psychological concerns, the Hellertown area has many excellent therapists and counselors who can help.

My name is Amy and I am a licensed professional counselor in the state of Pennsylvania. I have been in the mental health field for nearly 15 years in a variety of settings. This has given me the opportunity to assist a diverse group of people in addressing both acute and chronic mental health issues while also striving to achieve an improved satisfaction with life. While I am trained in a variety of therapeutic approaches, a person’s needs and preferences ultimately determine what will drive the collaboration. I am extensively trained in relationship issues, post traumatic stress disorder, and women’s health issues including pregnancy emotions, postpartum depression and perinatal loss. In addition to that, I also have a significant amount of experience with anxiety, depression, bipolar, grief /loss, and adjustment issues. It can be overwhelming to experience negative emotions. Some of us only experience them for a short amount of time after a specific event occurs, while others experience their interference in life satisfaction for many years. It is my hope that I can assist you in assessing and managing the negative thoughts and emotions you might be experiencing. I believe those that I have worked with in the past would describe me as easy to talk to, having a love for humor, and liking to keep things “real.” I value creating a warm and genuine environment that you can feel comfortable in discussing some of the most difficult topics. Making this initial decision to establish a relationship with a counselor can leave you feeling vulnerable when getting ready to talk with a complete stranger. It is my goal to immediately create a comfortable working relationship. I look forward to meeting you!

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Pennsylvania. I enjoy supporting clients who desire to heal from trauma and those who are struggling with transition concerns. As a person who grew up over seas, I also enjoy supporting clients who come from a variety of different counties and cultures. I graduated from Chatham University with a Master of Science in Counseling Psychology and I generally practice using a culturally humble and trauma informed lense, although I believe that an important component to treatment is the relationship I form with my clients. I have worked in community mental health, in university counseling, outpatient counseling, and at a sexual assault crisis center. I look forward to meeting you and supporting you in your healing journey!
