I have a foundational belief that no one deserves to be alone on their healing journey. My name is Amie Dunn. I have spent the last 25 years dedicated to helping individuals and families struggling with mental health issues. I obtained two master’s degrees, one in Cognitive and Behavioral Disabilities as well as in Mental Health Counseling and Rehabilitation. I am furthering my studies as well with a doctoral program with a PhD in Psychology and am eager to complete that journey, reaching a very personal goal after my own traumatic event rocked my life. My post-graduate work has allowed me to specialize in trauma, with certifications in Sexual Abuse, Play Therapy, and Art therapy. I hold certifications in specific modalities including Cognitive and Behavioral Therapy, Crisis Intervention Therapy, Trauma Informed Consent Therapy, and Child Adoptions Related Therapy, Mindfulness and Certified Professional Life Coaching. I am a Preferred Provided for the Department of Children and Families/Child Protective Services Division program. My specialized skill sets have also led me to be a sworn in expert witness for Pinellas. Hillsborough, Pasco, and Hernando Counties, respectively. For the past twenty-five years, I have dedicated myself to working with military veterans, children, adolescents, adults, and families struggling with trauma. I look forward to the opportunity of hearing your story. I approach each individual with respect, reliability and real-life experiences resulting in a level of respectable relatability. No one person fits in a square box and can find all the answers from a textbook. As a Play Therapist I seek healing for others outside the norms of traditional counseling. I believe it has to hit home and be real, truly real for trust and safety to build. This is the place where each client feels empowered to use their voice! It is my honor to offer services helping individuals seeking to find hope and healing. Everyone deserves support in their healing journey and should never feel alone. My hope and commitment to each of my clients is for every single person to have the life they want and so deserve.
