Dr. Thomas A. Jackson

"Amy Pierce is one of the most spiritually insightful and caring persons I have known in more than 50 years of pastoral ministry. Her superb personal gifts, coupled with her outstanding training, equip her to serve as a highly effective counselor and spiritual director. Amy helped me to experience personal growth during a stressful transition in my own life. Based on my own experience, I can recommend her enthusiastically to anyone seeking greater self-understanding, inner healing, or personal, spiritual growth."

 
Suzanne W. Luper, M.Div., L.P.C.

"I became a client of Amy's at a time when I needed guidance about my professional life. The work we did impacted me in deeply positive ways, emotionally, spiritually and professionally. Because I care about making her gifts more available to the people of our community, I offered to serve on her board of directors. I want to make sure that Amy Pierce is no longer the best-kept secret in the Triangle!"

Dr. H. Eugene McLeod

"Through working closely with Amy in a major community endeavor, I came to know her as a very bright and multi-talented, yet genuinely humble and deeply spiritual, person. I have been privileged through a continuing friendship to share her journey toward the calling for which I believe she is superbly gifted and prepared: Authentic Self Spiritual Counseling.

Amy has suffered major emotional pain in her life, and she now suffers with potentially debilitating physical pain. She has found healing for the emotional pain and learned to live heroically with the physical pain largely, I think, because she has discovered her own 'authentic self.' More than any other person I have known, Amy seems continuously aware of her own and our connections to the entire universe and to the creating, loving life-force that is everywhere present. It is by living out of that connection that she has found 'the innate spiritual alignment that is our birthright, assuring our trust, safety and peace, no matter the outer circumstance,' her definition of authentic self.

In what I refer to as her 'natural healing presence,' Amy has an extraordinary ability to awaken in others an awareness of the fundamental spiritual quality of all creation and to help them experience that ever-near and loving presence that I call God, and that she, in respect of all religious orientations, allows others to name for themselves. Whenever I enter into conversation with Amy, regardless of the purpose or the starting point, without exception, I find myself feeling closer to God.

To this remarkable giftedness, Amy has added disciplined study and hard work to prepare superbly for the practice of spiritual counseling. I would be pleased to entrust myself to Amy's care or to recommend her as a counselor to those dearest to me."
