"Working with Amy was a meaningful clinical experience. Quality supervision is critical for clinician development, but is not easy to find. She consistently provided thoughtful, evidence-informed clinical guidance and drew from a variety of therapeutic approaches to help me think critically about my work. What stood out most was her attention not only to clinical interventions, but also to the clinician as a whole person. She created space to explore what was coming up for me as a therapist in sessions, helping me better understand my own reactions, strengths, and growth areas. Her process-oriented approach deepened both my clinical skills and my self-awareness. She modeled a gentle, nonjudgmental presence that reflected the same care and compassion we should strive to offer our clients. She was also exceptionally reliable and present. Supervision was prioritized, scheduling was consistent, and I felt supported and able to access guidance when needed. Her combination of clinical expertise, authenticity, and dedication made a lasting impact on my development as a therapist."

"Throughout my LPC residency, I struggled to find a supervisor that seemed truly invested in my growth. When I stepped into the CSOTP residency, Amy was my clinical supervisor and it was evident from the start that she was not just trying to get through her workday, but that she was passionate and invested in training providers to care for themselves and others effectively and compassionately. Having Amy as my supervisor not only influenced my clinical work, but influenced the way that I live my life on and off of the clock. I learned to listen to my own needs, to assert and advocate for myself within the clinical world, to identify and implement necessary boundaries in my work life as well as my personal life, and to gently and compassionately care for those that I was entrusted to treat. I consider having Amy as my supervisor to be a pivotal experience in my growth as a human and as a therapist."

“Amy’s exceptional knowledge, expertise, and years of clinical experience helped me to grow into a more confident and competent clinician while strengthening my identity as a clinical social worker. During every supervision session, Amy challenged me to think critically, expand my clinical skills, and continually strive for excellence. She provided thoughtful guidance on evidence-based modalities and interventions while ensuring that my clinical practice remained aligned with the NASW Code of Ethics and best practices in the field. What truly sets Amy apart is her genuine investment in the people she supervises. She didn't just focus on my clinical work—she consistently prioritized my emotional well-being, recognizing the importance of self-awareness and self-care in becoming an effective clinician.
Throughout my supervision journey, Amy supported me through challenging client cases, workplace transitions, and career changes, always offering sound guidance, encouragement, and perspective. One of the most meaningful aspects of my experience was Amy's unwavering support while I prepared for the LCSW exam. From countless hours of studying, to the disappointment of not passing initially, to ultimately achieving my goal, Amy remained a constant source of encouragement and motivation. She believed in me even during moments when I doubted myself, and her support played an invaluable role in helping me persevere.”

“Amy is an exceptional supervisor who not only recognizes who you are as a clinician but also meets you exactly where you are in your professional journey. She leads with compassion while providing thoughtful insight that both challenges your current perspective and encourages growth, all in a way that feels approachable and easy to understand. Although Amy and I attended undergraduate school together, she never allowed our previous connection to influence our supervisory relationship. She always viewed me as her Supervisee, creating a professional environment built on respect, trust, and accountability.
One of Amy’s greatest strengths is her genuine curiosity and empathy. She creates a space where different perspectives are welcomed, often inviting me to share my experiences and viewpoints as a woman of color. Her willingness to learn from others, combined with her ability to remember the small details that make each person unique helped me feel truly seen and valued. One piece of advice from Amy that stayed with me beyond achieving clinical licensure is to never hide my unique, quirky personality. Instead, she encouraged me to embrace it and showed me how those qualities could become some of my greatest strengths as a clinician and a way to connect authentically with clients who see themselves reflected in that same individuality.
Amy has a remarkable ability to balance encouragement with constructive challenging, helping her Supervisees build both confidence and competence. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking a supervisor who is compassionate, insightful, culturally responsive, and deeply invested in helping others grow into the best version of themselves.”
