Why this work matters
I became a counselor because I believe everyone deserves to live the fullest version of their life — not a version shaped by old stories, other people’s expectations, or wounds they’ve been carrying alone for years.
We all have a story. The one we tell ourselves about who we are, what we deserve, and what’s possible. Often, that story was written in pain — and it isn’t the truth. Together, we rewrite it in a way that reflects who you actually are and who you want to become.
I specialize in working with adults (ages 25+) navigating anxiety, relationships, shame, career pressure, depression, and life transitions. I am also a Certified EMDR Therapist, helping clients heal from trauma at the root.
Areas of Specialization
Counseling Services
Anxiety & Stress
For those who feel constantly overwhelmed, on edge, or unable to quiet the internal noise — even when life looks fine from the outside.
Women's Counseling
Navigating identity, relationships, self-worth, motherhood, career, and the complicated, beautiful experience of being a woman.
Relationships & Family
Repairing patterns, improving communication, and building the kind of connections you actually want — with others and yourself.
Life Transitions
Career shifts, loss, divorce, new chapters — the moments that shake your sense of self and invite you to redefine who you are.
A Specialized Approach
Heal what words alone cannot reach.
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is an evidence-based therapy that helps the brain process and release traumatic memories — without requiring you to relive them in detail. As a Certified EMDR Therapist, Amee guides clients through this transformative process with care and precision.
How EMDR Works
1 History & Preparation
We identify the experiences that need processing and prepare your nervous system to engage safely.
2 Bilateral Stimulation
Using guided eye movements, tapping or hand buzzers, your brain reprocesses distressing memories at a neurological level.
3 Integration & Relief
Traumatic memories lose their emotional charge and new, healthier beliefs take root in their place.
