ALPENGLOW - Jane English

"I met Amy through a series of synchronistic events (don't you love it when that happens) and after three sessions with her, I am in a totally different place in my life. I came to her feeling 'stuck' in several different areas of my life. She helped me work with my fears and with getting to some deeper issues and, as a result, I was able to make some big decisions - like leaving a job I had been wanting to leave for the past seven or eight years! I discovered a new passion in my life - watercolors - and I suddenly have all this new energy! I am very grateful to Amy for her kind and gentle facilitation. I recommend her highly.

- K.M., budding artist

"Amy's facilitation of my thinking about myself and the honing of my questions allowed the anxiety about a specific set of details to be transformed into a clarity about who I am in the Universe. This clarity has given me an unanticipated sense of ease with my purpose."

- E.M., psychotherapist


"I called Amy to abate a crisis, and we did. Now I see Amy to flourish, and I am. My spiritual journey 'is'-- and will continue."

- T.B., contractor


"My spirit has some support now and I'm giving spirit and mind more respect than I have."

- D.B., musician


"THANK YOU for giving your gift....I am so lucky to have won three free Spritual Counseling sessions with you! I am glad I said, "No" to my Dad, who said, "You need to go to a Catholic for spiritual counseling." I trusted that a non-Catholic would be just as helpful, and that ALL spiritual counselors provide their own unique angle that helps the soul open up and reconnect with God the Creator; so, why not open up from as many angles as possible?

I was right. I see now that I have a choice, free will, and that I have the will-power to achieve the outcome I desire. ...From doubts and fears to faith and trust: faith in God. faith in Me. This leads to a sense of overall trust, which leads to letting go. I am in appreciation of your gift."

- R.A., soul searcher


"When I went looking for a counselor, I wanted someone who was willing and able to get down into the "muck and mud" of my life with me, and who I could trust to work with me in finding my way out. Consistently, Amy has been that person. In my work with her, I have found one of the only places in my life where I have ever felt completely safe and non-judged. She creates an environment that makes possible and calls forth deeply honest sharing of thoughts and feelings. And I am stronger for it."

- P.W., a growing human spiritual being


"Working with Amy has made me so much more aware of the spiritual part of myself. I have been able to shed past thinking that limited me in realizing my full potential, both personally and professionally."

- G.M., artist


"My husband was seeing Amy. I was encouraged by his experience. I was seeking a facilitator who could help me hear my beliefs about myself that hindered my ability to thrive. In Amy, I found a context of language and knowledge that felt like home - the best kind of home."

- D.B., child and youth advocate


"I am deeply grateful to Source for the crisis that forced me to seek outside help. Prayers really are answered - I believe I was delivered to Amy. She is truly the most productive, compassionate, encouraging coach/counselor I've ever had. With her wisdom, love, and guidance she has been so transformative in my life. I was absolutely riddled with fear when I first came to her office ten months ago. I felt so alone and was terrorized by surfacing memories from childhood. That afternoon, I left her office feeling like a profound shift had happened deep within me, a shift I had never felt before. She has given me logical, workable solutions to apply to what seemed unsolvable problems. Her counsel gave me renewed hope for life and I no longer feel so alone.

Amy's faith has been a great inspiration and assisted me in removing the belief that people, family, jobs, relationships were my source of goodness. If any of those areas went haywire, I was a mess. Gradually, with a lot of practice, I have come to see that THEY are not MY SOURCE. I have been building the muscle of faith as Amy helps me 'reword' my fears into affirmations of faith. She takes me to a window of hope, and holds my hand metaphorically. Whenever Amy learns something new, she shares it with me. Each exercise produces new flowers, new insights.

The transformation happened gradually, but now I am feeling calmer, more confident and at one with my true nature. My artwork is proof of the fruits of our labors. I am creating on a totally new level---doubt and procrastination have vanished. Before, I didn't feel deserving of such beauty; now when I am inspired, I go right to work. Amy helps me absorb the Truth that Source sends me ideas because It/He/She has a plan of goodness for my life. I am confident enough to make appointments with businesses to show my works, and life is beginning to move in a very positive direction.

Amy has encouraged me every step of the way and has always honored my individuality.... that has been a rare pearl in my life. She encourages my authenticity, and helps me go deeper. The more I focus on the Truth Amy brought me to, the more I come into peace. Fear is losing its grip and faith is taking its place. I am finally calming down and beginning to blossom. The lessons I am learning with Amy, will stay with me the rest of my life. Now that is a rare return on an investment!!"
