About Amy Brant

As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I believe that each family unit is unique. When positive growth or change is made by one member of the family, each member benefits.
I started my career in 1998 as a teacher for students with special needs and as a public school guidance counselor. In 2011, I decided to earn my LMFT degree as it was becoming more clear that our families and past experiences strongly shape decisions we make and behaviors we choose as adults.

My therapeutic approach varies as to what you need. Some people benefit from Solution-Focused, brief-type therapy, while others may need a more collaborative, educational approach. I offer EMDR for trauma/PTSD and Prepare-Enrich curriculum for couples’ needs. I will be a supportive, empathetic listener and will take time to craft my services around your individual needs, whether that is working through events in your past or planning a healthy future. My goal is to empower you to become the best YOU!

“Amy is great. She listens, encourages and makes suggestions to help you move forward. I would recommend her to any of my friends or family.”

“In just two sessions (and many messages), I am already feeling hopeful that I can find my way through some erroneous thoughts and feelings I have about myself. The best way to say it is "I feel hopeful and encouraged"”

“Amy has been so easy to talk to! From the start I felt extremely comfortable disclosing anything to her and asking questions.”

“Amy has the ability to make me feel I have known her for years, which makes me feel incredibly comfortable with her. She is a gentle listener and is quick to understand.”

“Amy is amazing. I was hesitant to schedule a session but I’m really glad I did. She has been very helpful with discovering my trauma and giving me ways to cope with them. I highly recommend Amy.”

“Amy understands me and allows me to talk though my challenges. She doesn't judge my experience and gives me real solutions to help with my situation.”

“Amy was a wonderful introduction to online counseling! She is very personable and warm, which made it easier to jump right into the deep stuff. Amy paid attention to my story and helped me consider things I didn't see before, as well as affirm me where appropriate. I highly recommend Amy!”

“Amy is great, she is able to talk to my head in such a kind and helpful way. I am able to work though things much more quickly with her! Totally worth the investment.”

“After going to a psychologist for a few months and being unhappy with the help I was receiving I wanted to try an online therapy platform. Amy is the only therapist I’ve worked with on BetterHelp but even after 2 phone sessions I feel better understood and supported than I did in months of therapy with my past individual!”

“Amy is very insightful and kind. She also has experience of being an actual mom, and understanding about family life.”

“She is very supportive and treats you with respect. She understands your situation and replies very quick.”

“Amy has a very approachable personality that makes it easy to talk to her.”

“Amy is a great, confident counselor that listens fully. She keeps track of so many things while getting down to the core issues. She is great via text and video and will serve you well whenever you are in need. She’s come through for me when I needed her in emergency situations and is someone you can trust.”

“She's AWESOME. Flexible, funny, easy to talk to, extremely helpful, and super encouraging. Lovin this experience. WAAAAAAAY better than what I dealt with earlier in life.”

“Amy’s a big confidence booster, I feel vast improvement in my lively hood. Some days will be tough through her conversations, but just know it’s to your benefit. I feel nothing but comfortable and that I’m finally being listened to and understood.”
