Hi there, I’m Amy! I’m truly committed to making this process as EASY as possible for you while honoring your unique experiences and affirmatively listening to your needs in the way that you deserve. I understand that calling to get started with mental health services might elicit some nervousness or fear of the unknown. But you are taking a HUGE step toward greater wellness and I am proud of every person who contacts me. I love making the setup process easy so that you can shift from nervousness about starting services to feeling empowered and excited as you begin your journey here.

Most people say I’m warm, compassionate, and empathetic – but truthfully, I’m just being myself, and I treat each and every person the way that I would want to be treated in healthcare. At River Oaks, we take your experience here from start to finish very seriously. You matter, you’re never alone, and we really care about you.

Favorite Self-Care:  I love to find creative outlets for self-care, like, journaling, playing piano/singing, painting as well as working out and being outside, walking, hiking, running.

Fun Facts:  I grew up in Holland, Michigan, I learned to play piano by ear at age 6, I love plants, specifically, succulents, and I have a pit-bull named Jersey who is more of a cow than a dog.

Life Motto:  “The world needs who you are and what you have to offer.”
