Hi, I'm Amaryllis, but you can call me Ama. I earned my Master of Social Work degree and have spent nearly eight years in clinical practice. I believe everyone deserves to feel seen, heard, and supported. I work with teens, adults, and older adults navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, life transitions, and intergenerational wounds. Together, we'll create a compassionate, judgment-free space to foster healing, build resilience, deepen self-understanding, and help you move toward the life you want. 

My approach is collaborative, flexible, and tailored to your needs. I integrate CBT, CPT, ACT, mindfulness, personcentered, solution-focused, trauma-informed, and strengths-based approaches to build coping skills, foster resilience, and support healing in a safe, affirming space. 

Healing can hold both tears and laughter. I strive to create a compassionate, judgmentfree space where you feel seen, heard, and accepted for who you are. When you're ready, I invite you to take the next step and begin your journey with me.

Anna received her Master’s in Social Work from Ohio State University. Her client-centered, humanistic approach pulls from many different schools of therapy (narrative, psychodynamic, and cognitive, among others).
