Why Healthcare
Amy's passion for providing mental healthcare services stems from her helping nature and her deep satisfaction in helping others uncover their truth and happiness. Walking beside someone while they discover their inner thoughts, beliefs, and experiences to become a healthier version of themselves is a humbling privilege and true honor. Her view is that every person has a story to tell, and sometimes those stories simply need to be heard for us to understand them, close the chapter on them, or even rewrite the ending.
