HEALING PHILOSOPHY
Any relationship can be challenging. What I like to call “the Principle of Charity” requires that we look for the best, rather than the worst, possible interpretation of someone’s words or actions. This is just one of many core principles needed to produce healthy relationships. Life presents unique circumstances and dilemmas. I offer a tailored approach, working collaboratively with client’s individual needs to provide transformational tools and hope.

These professional experiences were foundational to her insight and understanding when she opened a private practice in 2008. Aimee currently works as a family therapist with individuals, families and children. Her specialized skill set includes marriage counseling, play therapy, and hypnotherapy. Aimee is also one of only a few in private practice who will make home visits, or attend school meetings when needed.
