Waitlist for new clients.
I truly believe that the goal of therapy is learning how to become your own best friend. When this becomes your reality, you can handle anything that life brings your way.
I specialize in counseling creative, gifted, and/or highly sensitive adults… or anyone who feels as if they don’t fit in. I approach therapy from a trauma informed lens and recognize how society, religion, politics, and family of origin can contribute to chronic invalidation and complex trauma. I am passionate about providing safe, affirming care for transgender and non-binary individuals, LGBTQIA+ folx, neurodivergent, and BIPOC clients.
Mindfulness is the core work because it is the key to applying self-love. I incorporate DBT skills which are evidence based and highly effective. I also incorporate Internal Family Systems (IFS)... the idea that we all have a family of parts within. These parts can get triggered and manifest as difficult thoughts and/or unskillful behaviors. In therapy you learn to transform these parts by giving them access to unconditional love. I also use EMDR and hypnosis to help facilitate this process as appropriate.
I am a board certified LPCC clinical supervisor and enjoy empowering new clinicians as they develop their unique therapy voice. I provide clinical supervision using the “Therapist as Self” model which means who you are and your life experiences matter and contribute to who you are as a therapist.
If you are interested in being on my waitlist for therapy or in connecting for individual or group clinical supervision, please email me at roberta@bluebirdcounselingllc.com
My work is grounded in the belief that reconnecting with your sense of self is at the heart of healing. I specialize in supporting adults with trauma (PTSD/C-PTSD), grief and loss (pet loss/non-death losses), and schizophrenia spectrum disorders. I have interest in mental health care related to reproductive and hormonal health (PMDD, PCOS, and perimenopause). I work with women and other people affected by these conditions, including trans and non-binary clients. I enjoy working with artists and creative individuals, helping them navigate the distinct emotional and psychological challenges of a creative life.
I am trained in EMDR, evidence-based Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) for PTSD and incorporate Internal Family Systems (IFS). I integrate mindfulness and DBT skills to enhance emotion regulation and self-expression. My person-centered approach emphasizes your inherent strengths, fostering empowerment and authentic healing at your own pace.
My style is structured yet approachable — trauma-informed, LGBTQIA+ affirming, and culturally responsive to diverse backgrounds and identities. I am also kink-aware and sex-positive, and welcome clients from the BDSM community and those in non-traditional relationship structures.
I believe therapy is a process of building a more loving, meaningful connection with yourself. My role is to support you in that process with compassion, curiosity, and respect for your lived experience.
I specialize in supporting adults who are navigating experiences such as:
I am passionate about creating an inclusive and affirming space, particularly for BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, and neurodivergent individuals.
My therapeutic style is flexible and tailored to your needs. I approach care through a trauma-informed lens and draw from several modalities to support healing, growth, and self-understanding.
Together, we’ll explore what helps you feel more connected, grounded, and like yourself.
Hi, I'm Amy and I am SO glad you are considering therapy - everyone deserves support!
I am called to do this work because I know what it means to feel a longing for someone who understands the parts of you that may feel confusing or tender. I lead with compassion and in our work together, you will learn how to have compassion for yourself.
So many of us learn to survive less than ideal circumstances by becoming overly pleasing, perfectionistic, putting everyone else's needs before ours, attempting to change our bodies or who we love, and we wind up feeling anxious, alone, and uncared for.
You will learn how to identify what your strengths are, what things you'd like to change, and improve your ability to tolerate stress. The key is often in unlearning some of the things you had to learn to survive, and reconnect with your own sense of power and truth.
I will adapt my style to fit you; however, I am generally warm, compassionate, curious and appreciate swearing, coffee, tears, pop-culture and plenty of laughter!
I especially enjoy supporting other helping professionals such as educators, healthcare professionals and other therapists. I am a Health at Every Size provider and have lived in a fat body most of my life, so I especially enjoy supporting anyone who has been told that their body is a "problem" - because, it most certainly is not. I am also a queer identified and gender-affirming practitioner who deeply believes in offering support from a trauma-competent and multicultural lens.
My areas of specialty include: Anxiety, Career Burnout, Grief, Fat Liberation, Body Neutrality, Health at Every Size, Identity,
Relationship Recovery (Family of Origin, Toxic Cycles, Emotional Abuse), Self-Worth, Women's Issues, and Aging
I can't wait to get to know how I can best support you in living the life you want!
