Raised in East Tennessee, Amy spent a decade in Kentucky and several years in the mountains of Colorado before returning to the Volunteer State. Outside of her professional life she fills many roles within her family - wife, stepmom, grandmother known as Mims, and dog mom to Cooper, Josie, and Finnegan - and she is also a daughter, granddaughter, sister, aunt, and friend. Her personal interests include traveling, hiking, reading, watching movies, attending sporting events, and trying new foods.

Amy approaches therapy with the belief that each person is the expert on their own story and that individuals bring strengths that support healing and growth. She aims to encourage and support those who take the step toward a more fulfilling and happier life.
