Amy Zimmerman

Amy is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over a decade of experience helping adults navigate trauma, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. She is known for her ability to help clients move beyond insight alone and create meaningful, lasting change in how they feel and function.

Amy is certified in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and incorporates it into her work to help clients process unresolved experiences and reduce the emotional intensity of past events. She takes a mind-body approach to therapy, recognizing the role of the nervous system in healing and helping clients build a greater sense of stability, resilience, and self-trust.

In addition to her individual work, Amy is a skilled couples therapist. Utilizing the Gottman method, she supports partners in improving communication, navigating conflict, and better understanding one another’s emotional needs. Her work with couples is both compassionate and direct, helping create meaningful shifts in relational patterns.

Amy’s approach is integrative and tailored to each client. She draws from EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and other evidence-based modalities to support both deep processing and practical change.

Clients often experience Amy as grounded, warm, and genuine. She brings a balance of compassion, insight, and warm-heartedness, creating a space that feels safe, nonjudgmental, and supportive of real growth.

Amy earned her Master’s degree in Counseling and Community Psychology from The Sage Graduate School in 2010.
