Professional statement

Born and raised in Los Angeles, California, and having been a New Yorker for 15 years, Amy is familiar with many different lifestyles and approaches. She understands the transitions and stressors of being a transplant from the West Coast and adapting to a new life. She received her Masters in Social Work from Hunter College and has since worked in the programmatic and clinical capacity facilitating groups and providing individual therapy for an array of issues including bereavement, traumatic loss, illness, maternal mental health, infertility, and caregiver support. Identification with others is key and can create a safe, down to earth, and judgment-free environment. She also work with client’s on self-esteem, self-worth, anxiety, depression, and relationships.


Message to clients

I truly believe that the essence of being human is resiliency. We all have the ability to survive life’s difficulties, and with focused support and reflection, thriving is possible for anyone.

I often take a relational approach to my therapy sessions. The primary goal of relational psychotherapy is to help clients better understand how they operate in relation to others and how their relating patterns can have an impact on mental and emotional well-being. I encourage my clients to help them understand and take into consideration the dynamics in their family systems growing up as well as the impact of social issues such as class, race, gender, religion, and culture. These dynamics can help us inform how to navigate traumatic experiences, self-defeating behaviors, and overwhelming life transitions. I also believe that the client and therapist working together to forge a strong, collaborative, and secure relationship can help to serve as a model for the client’s future relationships with others including the most important relationship with yourself.

Now, more than ever, everyone needs extra support during these unprecedented times. I’m looking forward to actively listening to you and helping you break barriers, so you can truly thrive.

Therapist's note

A Good Place Therapy providers are out-of-network for all insurance carriers except Lyra Health; some providers are also in-network with NYU student health insurance (CHP).

Prospective clients also have the option of seeing one of the many excellent LMSWs who take NYU CHP insurance; they also offer fees starting at $100/session if clients meet income eligibility.

Clinicians will file out-of-network benefits directly on behalf of clients, so that clients only need to pay the deductible or the copay up front. Many people have excellent OON benefits and after their deductibles are met, they pay only 20-50% of the fee. A Good Place also commonly reduces what clients pay until they reach their deductible.
