Her work blends Jungian analysis with somatic psychotherapy, bodywork, and creative expression to create a unique modality that moves beyond talk therapy. Amy's work has been described as a 'blend of practicality and spirituality.' In addition to bringing warmth, empathy, and a non-judgmental attitude to her work, Amy is an active participant in teaching her clients tools and practices that lead to real and lasting change in body, mind, and spirit.

Amy specializes in the treatment of trauma and PTSD, anxiety and fears, creative blocks, depression, relationship issues, as well as issues related to LGBT clients and women's bodies. She utilizes dream exploration, writing, drawing, body and breath awareness, meditation, TRE, EMDR, Moment-to-Moment Painting, and talk therapy to access the lesser-known parts of ourselves. She is a frequent presenter on the topic of the body as a gateway to transformation and enjoys providing consultation to other mental health professionals who desire to incorporate more of a body-oriented approach into their work.
