Amy Dorod-Gaul LPCC-S

I believe therapy is most effective when you feel safe, respected, and truly understood. With over 15 years of experience, I specialize in trauma-focused work with adults, particularly those navigating the lasting impact of childhood abuse. I view it as an honor to hold space for people’s stories and approach each client with compassion, curiosity, and deep respect.

A core belief in my work is that you are the expert on your own life. You already hold the wisdom of your lived experience—my role is to walk alongside you, help you make meaning of what you’ve been through, and support you in becoming your most authentic and grounded self.

I also work with individuals in high-stress professions, including police, fire, EMS, and 911 dispatchers, and understand the unique emotional weight these roles can carry. In addition, I have a strong interest in supporting athletes and high-achievers. I coached competitive gymnastics for over 20 years and am a parent of athletes, which gives me insight into performance anxiety, perfectionism, pressure, identity, and burnout.

Alongside my clinical work, I have held leadership and supervision roles throughout my career, which informs my thoughtful, ethical, and grounded approach to care.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, impacted by past experiences, or simply ready for change, I offer a supportive space where you don’t have to carry everything alone.
