About Amelia
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 16 years of experience supporting individuals navigating depression, anxiety, and other life stressors. I believe people heal best when they feel safe, seen, and supported. My approach focuses on helping clients rediscover their inner strength, develop healthy coping skills, and create meaningful, lasting change through a compassionate and empowering therapeutic relationship.
I earned a Master’s in Social Work from Saint Louis University, and I am licensed to practice in Texas, Missouri, and Illinois. I use a strengths-based approach and motivational interviewing to help clients identify their stage of change and build lifelong coping skills, especially when supporting perinatal clients on their postpartum journey.
I aim to provide a warm, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore their emotions, gain insight, and grow in self-understanding. My goal is to guide individuals toward transformation and renewed perspective so they can move forward with clarity, confidence, and emotional balance.
"As one who has experienced personal loss, I have a genuine understanding of how life transitions can impact daily functioning and how addressing these transitions with loving kindness can transform us once again."
Get to know Amelia
Why did you decide to become a counselor or psychiatric provider?
While experiencing one of life's greatest transformations, I noticed the lack of resources available to both individuals and families. This led me to become more involved with others during this transitional phase.
What types of clients do you work best with?
I work best with clients who are interested in learning more about their metal health and the willingness to explore solutions
What's one thing you wish all clients knew about therapy, mental health, or the healing process?
Therapy can assist individuals in the discovery of strengths, skills, and determination to restore one back into balance and understanding.
What can clients expect in their first session with you and in the early stages of therapy?
Clients can expect a safe, non judgemental environment to identify and discuss their needs.
What personal experiences or values inform your practice as a therapist/provider?
As a therapist who has experienced personal loss and several life transitions, I believe that approaching therapy with grace can provide a much better outcome in the long run.
How do you tailor therapy to meet each client’s unique needs?
Each individual brings forth their own experiences and values. As such, the importance of approaching treatment within the scope of these experiences highlight the unique journey ahead.
