Healing starts

where you are

Life’s challenges can leave a lasting imprint on our mind and body — shaping how we think, respond, and feel. If you’re navigating anxiety, stress, disconnection, or relationship struggles, it doesn’t mean you’re broken. These patterns often reflect protective responses and experiences that once helped you cope but now feel exhausting or isolating. Whether you identify with the word “trauma” or simply recognize the impact of what you’ve been through, therapy offers space to understand, heal, and reconnect with your whole self.

At Whole Self Counseling, you’ll find a safe and grounded space to slow down, process what you’ve been through, and learn practical skills for navigating daily life.

Therapy supports movement from survival mode into a place of balance, clarity, and connection with yourself and with the people who matter most.

“Hi, I’m Amy Pantele. I specialize in complex trauma and help individuals, couples, and families. My work focuses on helping people move from survival mode into balance, clarity, and connection with themselves and those they love.

  • Growth story:

    “ Amy provides genuine empathy and support, and legitimately cares about you as a person. She knows when you just need to rant, when you need gentle direction, and when you need kind but firm guidance. There is a distinct divide between how I thought and operated before I started seeing her, and now. I can always count on her to illuminate unseen aspects of situations, helping me understand things more fully, and give me steps to grow that are suitable for where I am on my path. I have been able to make

    SO MUCH PROGRESS. “

  • Growth Story:

    “ Working with Amy has been life-changing. She creates such a safe, calming space where I finally felt understood. Instead of just talking, she helped me connect what I was feeling in my body with what I was holding on to emotionally after years of trauma. I have real skills for grounding my body and can process situations differently. For the first time in my life, I feel like I’m moving forward instead of just surviving. ”

  • Growth story:

    “ I have had several therapists in the past, and they were all good people, but I never really felt like I received help that gave me new perspectives, new information, or challenged me to grow in ways that were uncomfortable but surely needed. That is not the case with Amy. As a therapist, she won't really TELL YOU what to do with a situation. She will help you see all sides clearly, and then assist you in making your own decision in your own time, which works best for you and feels right to you. “
