How We Do It

The counselors at Amy Wine Counseling Center have extensive training in different kinds of therapy. For the most part, we do what’s known as ‘talk therapy’, where we will sit with you as an individual, couple or family and discuss the issues at hand. With children and teens, we sometimes engage in more creative outlets, like play therapy and expressive arts.

Your therapy is your own and we encourage you to move at your own pace, guiding you in the direction you need to go, but not directing you or giving you advice. We help you reveal the tools and techniques that work best for you as an individual, couple or family. In a physically and emotionally comfortable environment, we help you realize your personal vision for your life and support you in your journey to health and happiness.

Sarah HenryLicensed Professional Counselor, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist Associate

People are like constantly changing jigsaw puzzles. They have all these little pieces that go together to create a complete picture. Sometimes it’s difficult to see where the pieces fit. At other times, the pieces don’t seem to fit quite right, or even at all. Counseling is a safe, nonjudgmental place where you can re-arrange your personal puzzle pieces, putting them back together in whatever way works best for you. [Read more…]

I help clients reframe the challenges they are confronting and develop problem-solving strategies that support them in changing the thoughts, feelings and actions that are keeping them stuck.
Something else I focus on with clients, when it’s appropriate, is helping them understand how their spiritual life can help them making the changes they want.

Maigen PhamLicensed Professional Counselor-Intern, Certified Sex Therapist-Candidate

We are all able to pinpoint something in our lives that we want to change: we want to suffer less, laugh more, love more fully and avoid anxiety. When we realize that whatever it is we have been trying to do to get rid of that anxiety isn’t working, that’s when we start looking for other solutions. Perhaps this is the path you’re finding yourself on right now. [Read more…]

Natalie WilieLicensed Professional Counselor - Intern

Have you ever gotten to a point in your life where things just aren’t going the way you would like them?

Maybe you are feeling down and do not know why. Maybe you are going through a difficult time with your partner and need help navigating those challenges.

Most people that engage in therapy are just ordinary people who are struggling with common, every day issues. There are times when we need someone to talk to who will truly listen without judgment. [Read more…]

Deciding to seek help is the first and often hardest step in the counseling process.

If you are checking out counselors in your area, you have already taken an important step in seeking help for yourself, your child, or a relationship.

Thomson IvinsPracticum Student

Despite technological advances which have provided us more ways to connect with others than ever before, we are often still silent about our struggles. We do our best to keep it together – to be resilient and strong, forging ahead through life’s ups and downs. However, sometimes we get trapped in our own heads, we struggle to connect with others, and we just feel a little “stuck.” These are things we all go through. [Read more…]

Life is not a simple thing, it is full of mystery, joy, pain, sadness, obstacles, and successes and people are no different. It is my philosophy that people are unique and we all have our own path on which we tread; however that path exists inside a world that is created by something outside ourselves. [Read more…]
