Amy Love

Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a Master’s in Integral Counseling and over 25 years of experience in children’s mental health, primarily working with youth affected by trauma, family separation, and attachment challenges.

At Little Dove, I bring warmth, empathy, and a sense of joy into the therapy room, so children feel safe, seen, and understood. I believe in the therapeutic benefits of play, creativity, and humor. I take time to understand your beliefs and values around parenting so that we can work together in a way that feels collaborative. I am committed to supporting family healing and resilience in the face of challenges.

I incorporate Child-centered Play Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy in my practice, tailoring interventions to meet the unique needs of each child and family. I am grateful for the privilege to walk alongside children and their families throughout their developmental journeys.
