Great to meet you!

Hey ya'll, my name is Amneris, my friends have many nicknames for me, but I prefer my full name. I would share my sun, mood, and rising sign, but I fear that would reveal too much about me. If you're looking for someone to hold you accountable and challenge you, we could be a good fit! I believe people have the power to help themselves, and I'm just here to help you unlock it.

My approach to therapy

My focus areas are working with people who struggle with interpersonal relationships, work-related stress, generalized anxiety, family issues, and life transitions. Even if you don't know or have a label for it, we can talk about it. Therapy is effective whether it's brief or long-term.

What you can expect from me

I take a very personal-centered approach with all my clients. My focus is to help you feel like your best self.
