Therapist: Amy Nelson

MSW, LICSW (she/her)

I’m thrilled to be part of your mental health care journey. I’m passionate about the benefits of therapy and the positive difference that a caring relationship with a therapist may bring. 

The most important part of my clinical approach is building a foundation of respect, safety, gentleness and communication.I believe that my strengths as a provider include lived experience with a mental health journey myself, a compassionate and flexible approach, building a genuine and warm connection with my clients, and my quirky sense of humor.I practice allyship with BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ communities, practice with a neurodiversity-affirming approach, and am Health at Every size aligned.

While I’m able to support many different therapeutic goals, I have a special interest in working with people who are neurodivergent, have a lived experience with trauma, those looking to better manage anxiety, or those who are looking to create a more peaceful relationship with food and/or body image. I’m able to offer telehealth services for ages 8+ and parent-based support is available for those under the age of 8.

I’ve been a therapist since 2021 and previously have worked in non-clinical roles in the mental health field. I’ve completed graduate degrees in human and social services (2019) and social work (2021). I’m also currently working on my PhD in social work at Walden University. I became DBT certified in 2024 and offer a modified DBT approach.In my spare time I enjoy art, animals and pets, being in nature, and traveling. I look forward to our work together!
