Amy Lipschultz is an Associate Clinical Mental Health Counselor, and graduated from Northern Arizona University with a Master degree in Mental Health Counseling. She has worked in the field of mental health for over 6 years, in outpatient, residential and wilderness therapy programs. As a counselor she hopes to create a safe space for individuals to be vulnerable and explore their thoughts, feelings, difficulties and hopes without fear of judgement. She believes that individuals are the experts on their own lives, and that all people are capable of positive self-directed growth. She recognizes that cultural and societal factors play an important role in mental health and that part of the therapeutic process is acknowledging and exploring these forces at play. Her trainings include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindful Self Compassion, Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Trauma Focused CBT, sand tray therapy, EMDR, and Gottman Method (Level 1).

Amy grew up in New Jersey, but has lived all over the country and currently calls Utah home. In her free time she enjoys rock climbing, hiking in the desert, crafting and traveling to new places.

Real people. Real progress.

“Therapy has helped me understand myself better and has helped me ask myself hard questions and seek the answers. It has helped me love and appreciate life and see that good lessons come from hard situations. Therapy has helped me find more purpose in my daily life and know that even with my many mistakes that I am a good mother. It has helped me see that marriage is worth all the work that is required to put into it and stop and listen with real intent to see how another feels and not just to respond with how I feel. Therapy has given me hope that things can get better, that I can change and improve, and a hope that love can overcome differences in life!”
