Psychodynamic Therapy
Dr. Amy Hecht
Psychologist, PhD
My practice is grounded in one central idea: that family, in all of its forms, deserves to be understood, supported, and thoughtfully nurtured. I have the privilege of working with individuals, couples, and families at some of the most meaningful—and often most vulnerable—moments in their lives. Whether someone is building a family, navigating challenges within one, or redefining what family means to them, my goal is always to create a space that feels both safe and genuinely supportive.
A significant part of my work focuses on family building, including comprehensive evaluations for adoption, assisted reproduction, and other non-traditional pathways to parenthood. I have extensive experience working with adoptive parents, intended parents, and families formed through surrogacy, donation, and other modern family-building processes. These evaluations are not just procedural—they are an opportunity to reflect, prepare, and enter parenthood with clarity and confidence.
In addition to evaluation work, I provide therapy for individuals, couples, and families. I approach this work with warmth, directness, and deep respect for each person’s experience. Whether addressing relationship strain, life transitions, trauma, or the complexities of parenting, I aim to help people better understand themselves and each other, and to move forward with intention.
I have a particular passion for working with non-traditional families—those whose paths may fall outside of conventional expectations but are no less meaningful or deserving of support. My practice is inclusive, affirming, and grounded in the belief that there is no single “right” way to build or be a family.
Above all, I strive to offer a space where people feel seen, understood, and guided—not judged. This is deeply personal work, and I consider it an honor to be part of my clients’ journeys.

Psychodynamic Therapy
Fernanda Cutrone Krumm, LPC/LCPC
Counselor/Therapist, LPC (AL), LCPC (IL), LMHC (FL)
Life can be messy, confusing, and intense. You might be navigating anxiety, ADHD, trauma, grief, relationship struggles, addiction, or just trying to figure out how to feel more like yourself.
Maybe you’ve been stuck in old patterns, overwhelmed by responsibilities, or unsure how to respond to the challenges in your life. Whatever your story, therapy can help you move forward with more clarity, balance, and confidence.
My work isn’t about blaming the past or staying stuck in old stories. It’s about understanding how your mind, body, and emotions all interact — and helping you respond to life in ways that feel more manageable, authentic, and aligned with who you want to be. In our sessions, we talk about everything: thoughts, habits, relationships, emotional patterns, and how your body experiences life. It’s a space to slow down, get real, and see yourself more clearly.
Together, we develop practical strategies and insights that help you manage overwhelm, navigate challenges, and make decisions that truly support your life. We curse, we cry, we laugh — and we work toward letting go of what no longer serves you while building the skills to thrive. Growth happens when we change how we think, believe, and act, and I am here to guide you through that process.
I offer telehealth sessions in Alabama and Illinois, so you can work with me wherever you feel safe and ready to do the work. My approach is grounded, real, and adaptable — for anyone looking to feel more capable, connected, and alive in their own life.
