Meet your therapist
Amy Rynn, LPC, ATR-BC (she/her)
Hi, I'm Amy (she/her), a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Board-Certified Art Therapist (ATR-BC) with 10 years of experience in the mental health field. I earned my Master’s degree in Art Therapy and Counseling from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. In 2022, I moved to the Upper Peninsula of Michigan to enjoy a slower pace of life and more time outdoors.
Outside of work, I consider myself a “maker” I love to craft, weave, collage and collect items for future projects. In my free time I enjoy taking my pup on hikes, swimming in lake Superior, and indulging in reality TV.
I am deeply committed to helping others discover their inner strength. My approach emphasizes building a trusting and safe therapeutic relationship, which allows us to work together toward healing and self-discovery. I specialize in supporting clients as they build resilience to burnout and work-related stress, embrace healthier relationships with food and body image, and address the impacts of complex trauma, depression, and anxiety. Additionally, I support individuals and couples in working through relational conflicts in both individual and couples counseling.
In therapy, I strive to create a space where self-acceptance and the desire for change can coexist. I combine art therapy and relational therapy techniques in my practice. When we build an environment of openness and safety, therapy becomes a powerful journey toward personal growth and recovery. I believe that creative expression can be a meaningful way to gain insight and heal. In our sessions, I use art therapy exercises to help you explore and understand your thoughts, beliefs, and emotions in a significant way.
