Amy Fordham, MA, LPCC

Mental Health Professional

Started at Riverstone in 2019

As a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor, I strive to treat clients as unique individuals who are worthy of unconditional acceptance, regardless of their struggles and circumstances. It is my desire to create a safe place, walk alongside, challenge, and encourage my clients to find emotional and mental healing. My integrative approach is person-centered while incorporating Dialectical Behavior Therapy and cognitive-behavior therapy methods. I work with older adolescents and adults, individuals of the LGBTQIA population, individual and family mental health issues, and veterans.

My previous professional experience included a model similar to that of Multi-Systemic Therapy working with adolescents and their families to help clients who were challenged with high-risk and/or defiant behaviors and attachment issues. I provided in-home therapy to these individuals to influence change through communication, rules and structure, and adequate support through relationship/attachment enhancement. I also co-facilitated adolescent and parent DBT group.

I have attended the Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) training through a Linehan Institute approved training. I work individually with adolescent and adult DBT clients and co-facilitate the adolescent and parent DBT groups. I am also trained in Radically-Open Dialectical Behavior Therapy (RO-DBT) targeting client’s overcontrol coping style and currently incorporate this model into individual sessions. I have training and experience with Systemic Family Therapy.
