Amy Guido
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Being in relationship with others can uncover areas of strength as well as struggle. If you grew up in a family that didn't do much self reflection, perspective taking, emotion coaching or repair making, you may feel at a bit of a loss with how to navigate relationship struggles in helpful ways.
Perhaps you've vented to friends and family to reduce the tension of the latest disagreement. For most of us though, that doesn't get us the perspective and skills necessary to get unstuck or moving forward more productively. I help people through targeted feedback and support to gain greater relational satisfaction and results. Even if your partner or child won't attend, sometimes the power of one can make a huge difference.
Perhaps today is a good day to take a risk and reach out to see if the change you seek is more attainable than you think. I bring a wholistic, curious, light-hearted, real and down to earth approach that takes into account your unique needs and goals.
If you're ready to try something new and would like support please reach out for help. While I don't accept insurance, I do have current openings. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Telespera Counseling
Licensed Professional Counselor
Does this sound familiar? You’re always pushing yourself to do more, chasing perfection, and going out of your way to make everyone else happy. If that resonates, you might just be an overachieving, perfectionistic people-pleaser.
But let’s be real for a moment. Behind all that drive and ambition, there’s often a hidden struggle. It’s like you’re juggling a million things, projecting success to the world while quietly battling doubts and worries when no one’s looking. It’s exhausting, isn’t it?
And then there’s your past. Sure, you might not call it trauma, but there are moments that still stick with you. They linger, shaping how you approach life and relationships today. You can feel their impact, even if you try to push them aside.
So here’s the big question: Are you reaching the point where it’s all just too much to handle on your own? If so, you don’t have to do it alone. Let’s talk.
