Therapy for When Midlife Feels Messy
You’ve achieved so much in your career, family, and relationships. From the outside, it looks like success. And in many ways, it is.
You wouldn’t call what you’re experiencing a midlife crisis. You’re not falling apart—you’re functional and even enjoy parts of your life.
But deep down, something feels off.
Click the link below to learn more about how I support adults like you in midlife experiencing heightened stress and pain - both emotional and physical- with a compassionate mind-body approach.
Support for Children, Teens, and Parents
Does your child get easily overwhelmed—emotionally, socially, or sensorially? Maybe it’s difficult to stay focused or do what’s expected, possibly even showing up as angry or anxious.
Safe and Sound Protocol is a music therapy that helps induce a feeling of safety and calm — one that likely isn’t present when your child is feeling overwhelmed. The music helps the brain and body move out of fight/flight/freeze so that it gets easier for your child to form healthy connections with others and the world around them while fostering executive functioning and creativity.

Hi, I’m Amy!
Life can feel like too much sometimes —whether you’re navigating the stress and pain of midlife changes or worried about your child struggling with emotions, sensory sensitivities, or connecting with others. It’s hard to know how to move forward when everything feels like it’s piling up.
For adults, I offer mind-body approaches to help with the tension, emotional strain, and physical pain that often come with midlife transitions.
For children, I use Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP), a gentle, music-based therapy that helps their nervous system feel safer, making it easier for them to regulate emotions and connect with others.
I’ll meet you and your child where you are with compassionate, personalized support to help create meaningful change.

Find Relief and Resilience with Therapy that Incorporates Mind and Body
Somatic Therapy, or therapy with a mind-body focus, offers a space to process what you’re going through now—and what you’ve been through before. It’s about creating room to explore your thoughts and feelings while also noticing how your body responds.
You decide how much the body is part of our work together, whether it’s simply paying attention to sensations as they arise or diving deeper with approaches like Somatic Experiencing or Safe and Sound Protocol.
This flexibility means we can go all in with body-based work, like SE or SSP, or incorporate gentle noticing of what’s happening in your body as part of the process. Together, we’ll explore what’s keeping you stuck and uncover what you need to feel more connected to yourself and what truly matters.
If you’re ready to take the next step, you can learn more about Somatic Therapy or schedule a free consultation today.
Making Space to Slow Down and Connect
You’ve been carrying so much—balancing everything and everyone around you—but where do you fit in? It’s hard to slow down and tune in, especially when you’re focused on holding it all together. But creating space for yourself—or finding the right support for your child—can change everything.
I offer compassionate mind-body therapeutic support, creating a space designed to meet you where you are. I help you—or your child—slow down, connect, and uncover what’s needed to move forward. For children who may need support, SSP is a gentle, nurturing approach that helps regulate emotions, ease challenges, and build connection.
When there’s room for your needs—or the needs of those who matter to you—you can move forward in a way that feels true to what’s most important in your life.
If this feels like the next step, schedule a free 20-minute consultation today.
