As a systemic therapist, I believe that most problems are in relationships and can be resolved by the client with some guidance, encouragement and psycho-education. Often, the relationship between the therapist and the client can be the catalyst for change in the clients life . The client is the expert about their own life and the therapist becomes a guide, coach, encourager and journey-mate. Therapy can be a life-changing, goal oriented, and hopeful experience. I hope you will consider trying it and feel the experience for yourself.

As a solution-focused therapist, my goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. By applying complementary therapy approaches and techniques, we will unearth long-standing behavior patterns or negative perceptions that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life.

Welcome to your safe, personal retreat where a cozy, comfortable sofa, soothing music, fresh aroma and coffee/soda with a light snack awaits your arrival! Also awaiting you is me, a counselor who is warm, creative, humble, engaging and passionate about helping people,. As a fellow sojourner, I have experienced and thrived beyond my own trauma/losses and have a desire to give back. Life can can be difficult. Past events, traumatic experiences, negative attitude/beliefs, addictions or destructive behaviors can be detrimental in all aspects of life, driving a person's behavior and thinking in ineffective ways. Counseling can provide a "sacred space" to begin sorting out issues of the heart so that freedom can begin take hold and hope and contentment are restored. I integrate Christian principles and explore solutions that fit for you . Carl Rogers stated, "The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change." Using both verbal and non verbal evidence based therapies, as I do, utilizes two different parts of the brain, making therapy more integrated and effective. Examples of these therapies that I use would include: cognitive behavioral, Gestalt, EMDR, family systems, sand tray, play therapy, person centered, and psychodynamic. I enjoy working with children, teen, adults, couples and families. I have experience working closely with 12 step programs, like Alanon, for family members, and children/teens affected by addictions and those recovering from addictions. I commend you for your bravery and look forward to the privilege of working with you!

Emotional wounds can sometimes drive our thoughts and behaviors which may influence our relationships in ineffective ways. Traumatic events leave scars, like negative thoughts, painful/intrusive memories, hopelessness or anxiety, relationship problems, or destructive choices, that are difficult to overcome merely through our own awareness and the awareness of others. My trauma-sensitive perspective helps me evaluate your situation and provide appropriate solutions to normalize your reactions, change your underlying unhelpful beliefs, and overcome the problems caused by the trauma. Going through the trauma was painful enough, therefore, my goal is to promote healing that feels safe, nurturing, and empowering!

Both a Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, Dr. Amy Fuller has extensive experience in assisting children, adolescents, individuals, families and marriages. She received comprehensive didactic and clinical training at Abilene Christian University , while completing a Masters degree in Marriage and Family Therapy. After working as a director of youth and children’s programs in church settings, Dr. Fuller gained expertise as a family preservation specialist for Child Protective Services and as a team leader for a home-based counseling agency. In addition, she served on the Methodist Hospital Psychiatric Assessment Team, providing crisis intervention and assessment of acute patients. Dr. Fuller holds a doctoral degree from St. Mary’s University in Marriage & Family Therapy. Currently, Dr. Fuller provides individual, marriage, and family therapy to clients in the private practice setting.

We all must struggle as we go through life. Yet, I see humans as remarkable and find that we can effectively handle many complex problems when we feel supported and understood. Thus, I offer a non-judgmental environment in which to explore your relationship with the world, the self, and important others in your life. If you choose to come see me, together we will try to better understand the issues you face and how you experience the world. Along the way, we will build new skills and make new meaning together. While I work with a wide range of issues, I specialize in anxiety and mood disorders, adult giftedness issues, and couples/family dynamics (including LGTB dynamics). My therapy approach is integrative, which allows me to better account for each client's personalized way of being in the world and design a treatment plan that is uniquely tailored to the way the issues at hand are being experienced by you. I often start with the most urgent need, like a problematic behavior, and work towards a deeper understanding of the problem experiences, like thoughts, feelings, and values surrounding the issues. My favorite techniques are those that combine mindfulness based cognitive therapies with existential explorations of the self. As a marriage and family therapist, I most enjoy working with the Satir Model to address relational functioning. This model suggests that when safety to be authentic is absent in a family or couple, there is often a sense of being trapped or stuck that can increase conflict, encourage poor choice selection, decrease self esteem, and increase negative thinking. When safety to be authentic is present, there is an overall sense of well being that allows for better conflict management, positive meaning making, good self esteem, and more fulfilling choice selection. Goals of the model are to increase awareness, acceptance, responsibility, and positive thinking and communication skills so problems can be solved more effectively and harmoniously. I have found couples in particular to benefit from the model and be able to deepen partner intimacy by improving acceptance of each other and improving communication about the self.
