About

My Story

Having worked in both an inpatient and outpatient setting, I have had the privilege of gaining extensive experience in a variety of clinical areas. I specialize in trauma, grief and loss, anxiety, depression, mood and personality disorders, stress, and relationship issues. I have worked for several years with children, adolescents, adults, and elderly struggling with mental illness, trauma, family conflict, abuse, anxiety, depression, and addictions. I am currently certified as a Clinical Trauma Professional(CCTP), in addition to certifications in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and in Telehealth (CTMH). I utilize an Eclectic therapeutic approach to psychotherapy tailored to each individual need which aims to implement the most effective treatment possible. 

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I provide individual and family counseling. I have a special interest in working with those who have experienced loss through relationships, divorce, illness, or trauma. I have worked with children, teens, and family survivors of abuse and traumatic experiences for many years.

Counseling is an investment into you and those you love. Every individual is unique as well as situations, beliefs, and values. Together we will explore your goals, nurturing emotional, physical, and spiritual health and wellness.

When I’m not lovingly caring for my family, managing my home and working with Amanda, I will likely be found reading, writing, walking or driving on county roads. If time permits, antique shopping, landscaping, hiking, and sunbathing by a decent body of water will do. It is my privilege to hear your voice on the phone and working alongside Amanda in the behind the scenes of your healing journey at Summers Psych LLC.
