Amy Price, MA, LCPC, Board-Approved Supervisor | Clinical Director
Working in private practice as a counselor and business coach, helping others develop the resiliency and resources to move beyond coping with life to embracing life.
She works with those who want to understand themselves better, introspectively and inter-personally. Those who are courageous enough to look beyond the “symptoms” and see what those symptoms are communicating about their core. This can happen for all ages, those who are married, those who are single, whole families, or individuals.
You are not a collection of symptoms. Many who come into Amy’s office have already begun to define their identity through anxiety, depression, trauma, obsessions, addictions, and the list goes on. These symptoms are simply there to point all of us, including Amy, to a deeper journey inward that gets to the heart of who we really are. This is not to minimize or trivialize the pain that goes with these symptoms. The pain is very real and Amy’s focus in counseling is to evaluate those symptoms and understand the core issues that are driving them. Her role is to develop a game plan that addresses both the core issues and the symptoms to help you understand who you really are and experience clarity, healing, and resolution.
