Amy Tevault

Amy is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with a master’s in counseling from Northwestern University. Before transitioning into the mental health field, Amy spent a decade as a corporate copywriter. Her professional background gives her unique insight into the ways career demands intersect with mental, physical, and relational well-being. She believes in the power of the therapeutic relationship as the foundation for healing, recognizing that feeling heard, seen, and cared often plays a more significant role in successful outcomes than any specific modality or workbook.

Amy works with individuals navigating life transitions, big feelings, avoidance, perfectionism, people-pleasing, or negative thought patterns. Her goal is to help clients notice and compassionately respond to signs of diminished mental health, empowering them to survive hardships and eventually thrive.

Amy’s belief in the power of counseling is deeply personal. Alongside her knowledge of evidence-based research and the transformative changes she has witnessed in her clients, her own experience as a therapy client has profoundly shaped her perspective. As a white, cishet woman from Indiana, Amy faced challenges related to the identities she holds, grappling with "privilege blinders" after a devastating personal loss. She sought grief counseling, which became a pivotal part of her healing. Therapy provided her with a space to process painful emotions like guilt and shame, foster greater self-compassion, and maintain stability in her life during a deeply destabilizing time.

Amy’s journey toward self-understanding, and her exploration of the systems we all navigate, is ongoing. This curiosity is woven into her therapeutic approach. In sessions, she asks thoughtful questions and listens with compassion and care, attuning to subtext, patterns, and the deeper meaning behind her clients’ experiences. Her goal is to empower individuals to recognize signs of diminished mental health, build resilience, and move toward thriving.

Amy lives in Ohio with her husband, son, and pets. She has a special interest in advocacy work for children and families in the foster care system, as well as older adults whose needs are often overlooked due to systemic, individual, or geographic challenges.
