D-I-V Design Agency — Counselor in Seattle, WA

If I could rate 10/10 stars I would. Amy is billed as "sex therapist, life coach, mediator" on Yelp and for me she was all 3 in that order. My previous experience with therapy has always been a topical analysis of whatever was bugging me that week, or CBT practices (snap a rubber band on your wrist before you do something rash). I decided I would be completely honest from the start and Amy held my truth with integrity every step of the way. Beyond giving me a completely new perspective, she taught me to sense my crisis states well before they happened, and how to step away from it before being ruled by it. Amy is worth every penny spent.

Amy is passionate about creating a positive, nurturing, healing change in people by helping/guiding them to come home to their true, loving nature. She is at once a parent, a therapist, a beautiful awakened woman, a guide, who can help one intuitively be aware of and work with their deepest inner blocks, while doing all this in a very logical, practical, patient and supportive way. She is very intuitively aware, and effectively combines data backed methods from positive psychology with the traditional spiritual practices. She is actively involved in academic research in this field. Given her experience working with children and their parents, she has very deep and subtle insights on the importance of sustainable, compassionate upbringing, and how a lack of love in early childhood can be a source of lack and suffering in later stages of life, that can have ripples for everyone. She helps see this an intuitive way, and creates an environment to find that child, support, nurture and heal that child with compassion and love. I have had a very beautiful, practical healing experience through these sessions, and I enjoy keeping this approach in all areas of life. I have seen good somatic therapists before, but sessions with Amy have been much more authentic, effective and for a change there is an alignment between intuition, spiritual healing practices and rational data based observation (which I have often found lacking in other therapists I have consulted). She is very passionate about this work and she brings a level of dedication, honesty and intuitive brilliance to it, which can only come from a true love for what she does.

Amy has been a tremendous help to me and my healing. She has helped me understand how the traumas from my childhood have been affecting my relationships in the past as well as the present and without change will affect those in the future. My work with her has brought a lot of clarity and the knowledge that I am capable of doing and must do if I want to be my best self. She is a healer!

Amy is a pro! She has a very calming presence and asks wonderful questions that prob appropriately into your stuff. Amy listens but not just to repeat your thoughts, she is actively listening to challenge your conclusions and gently allow you to grow and expand. If you are looking for an intelligent professional who is committed to her work in helping you, you've come to the right person.

Working with Amy has been such an eye opening and valuable experience for me and my husband. We have been through a lot together which has made our bond strong, but also has given us a lot of baggage. We also come from challenging backgrounds which sometimes highlights our lack of healthy coping mechanisms. All of this to say that there are lots of layers weaving in and out of our relationship. Unraveling them can be challenging. Amy has helped us to understand each other's unique values and how they affect the way we each communicate. Learning how to express my thoughts and feelings in a calm and positive way, in a language that my husband understands has been hugely beneficial to our marriage. I can't thank Amy enough.
