Amy Belanger, LMFT
Amy's areas of special interest include trauma and trauma-based disorders, victims of crime, relationship issues, blended family issues, child abuse, and domestic violence.
Amy relates to many theoretical approaches but is drawn to solution-focused therapy while also utilizing cognitive behavioral techniques. She believes that each individual possesses the skills and expertise to solve their problems, but may have lost sight of these abilities. She helps individuals rediscover their already-existing ability to develop solutions that are appropriate for them. Amy provides a comfortable and supportive environment to empower change and personal growth that the client can sustain in the long-term.
