Hello, I am Amy Jacobs and I am a Licensed Clinical Psychotherapist. Being in this field for the past three decades, I hold a perspective which honors that each person is unique, worthy of dignity and respect while having a need to be understood within one’s individual life and experiences. I find that we all naturally seek to move towards growth and evolvement, towards meaning and purpose, yet sometimes we may struggle in seeking and understanding this in the various life path’s we may be on. Much of my professional walk has focused on fostering growth in the lives of many children and youth.

Regardless of your unique stressor, burden or anxiety, regardless of your worry and concern, regardless of your challenge or source of pain, there is hope and more than one way to address the variety of situations we encounter in life. I have had the honor to work successfully with people who live with anxiety and the various manifestations and disorders of anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and traumatic experiences...both small and large, some of those experiences being obvious and some not so obvious.

Whether you are dealing with general life challenges or issues specifically related to being a woman, I can help. My goal is to help women become empowered. I believe we can change how we live by changing how we think. We can change our negative self-thoughts and unhealthy behaviors, learn how to express ourselves in an assertive way and set healthy boundaries, overcome trauma and move from surviving to thriving, change how we relate to others and improve our relationships, improve our body image, make healthy choices, learn how to manage/overcome anxiety or depression or anything else that is keeping us from reaching our potential.

Desperate, don’t know where to go. Thinking about suicide or harming yourself? Maybe it seems like no one will actually hear what you have to say about your pain. Maybe you’re tired of being judged? Todd Hawkins can provide you with a safe place to talk about your wounds, your emptiness, your struggles, your fears, all without judgment. For Todd, understanding where you’re coming from is the most important aspect to therapy.

I specialize in working with young children and their families. I use age-appropriate interventions to assist children in working towards resolution of the emotional distress that drives problem behaviors. I work closely with parents to support them in learning to reconnect with their children on an emotional level. I work with autistic children and adults who struggle with anxiety and depression. I use a person-centered (and child-centered) philosophy of therapy. I have expertise in working with trauma survivors, especially relational trauma such as sexual abuse and abandonment issues.

We don’t come into this world with a guidebook and at times our upbringing fails to equip us emotionally for the journey ahead. This combined with life stressors and lack of support can make it difficult to navigate challenges that come our way and can negatively impact our mental health. Our minds can feel like a runaway train, our bodies run on auto pilot and relationships are left strained. Depression and anxiety can set in, leaving us helpless and overwhelmed. Emotional injuries may show up as difficulty trusting others, expressing or regulating emotions, or solving problems.

I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor with 28 years of experience working with children, adults and families to enhance relationships and personal well-being. I enjoy working with youth and adults and use a client-centered approach to address anxiety, depression, trauma, and behavioral issues. I also like to work with parents who may be struggling with their children's behavior. The relationships we have with our own parents whether we are adults or kids has a great impact on how we see and interact with the world; understanding these relationships can go a long way in understanding ourselves.
