Ami Kent

Welcome! I have worked in a variety of settings including crisis, inpatient, community mental health & private practice. I believe everyone's journey through therapy is unique and sometimes the most difficult step is getting started. My goal is to establish a strong rapport with clients through a strengths-based, genuine, and nonjudgmental perspective. Utilizing an eclectic approach with evidence-based practices, I partner with each client to explore symptoms and establish treatment goals tailored to your needs. I view therapy as a collaborative process in which I support clients to increase happiness, regain control of thoughts, regulate emotions, and realign behaviors with your values and insights.

I am an active listener who quickly establishes rapport with clients and tailors treatment plan goals to meet client's needs. I work with each client to find a balance between processing feelings/trauma and taking action with skills education. Clients appreciate my warmth, sense of humor and authenticity.

During the first session, we will review informed consent, intake documents and address any initial questions or concerns you have. We will continue to establish rapport and explore primary issues over the first few sessions to establish treatment plan goals. It can often feel overwhelming, but rest assured, we will move at your pace.
