Amy Venn

Therapist

What is your approach to therapy?

I believe that every person has inherent value, and was uniquely made for this Earth. Most people saw the best in themselves and others, when at some point they were overcome with disappointment, hurt, or other of life's challenges. When this happens they may find themselves asking, "Who is there to listen without judgement?" or "Who can I tell what happened when I think nobody will understand?" These people want to have a life worth living, but feel like it's too much to navigate on their own.

What can clients expect from their first session with you?

I'm a strong advocate, and I can help you to advocate for yourself too. I can be a listening ear, a helper, someone to have an open honest dialogue with. I use humor and relationship to help people feel well supported and motivated towards their goals.
