About

Change is inevitable, so I encourage you not to get stuck in a rut while life passes you by. Come to therapy and find an optimal you. If you’re looking to change yourself or just know yourself better, having someone to guide you or process with you can be the path you’re looking for. I have a relaxed and accepting approach that will allow you the comfort and space to share and grow. Mental health is important and needs to be managed whether you have a mental illness or not. Recovery and excellence are possible. I’d love to be part of your journey or catalyst for change. Amy is a licensed marriage and family therapist in Texas (#203377).
