Mrs Amy Tatreau

Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist

Amy(She/Her) provides compassionate and non-judgmental therapy. Amy’s passion is to help folks reclaim their joy and inner peace and to spread that into all their relationships. Swearing and laughing encouraged!

About Me

I provide compassionate, non-judgmental therapy, creating a safe space for genuine exploration. My passion is to help you reclaim your joy and inner peace. These positive shifts can then enrich all your relationships. We can work together to understand challenges and build stronger connections. For clients seeking an authentic environment, laughter and swearing are genuinely encouraged here. This relaxed approach supports you in feeling truly comfortable as we navigate your path forward.

Approach

My sessions are relaxed and candid, where humor and the occasional swear help loosen tension as we gently explore what matters to you. Whether we meet in Sacramento or online in English, I keep the pace steady—mixing reflective listening with experiential moments that bring awareness into your body and choices. Using acceptance-based steps and somatic noticing alongside exploring long-standing relationship and grief patterns, I help you try small, values-driven experiments between sessions to build momentum. People juggling anxiety, chronic illness, or burnout often find this practical, warm rhythm grounding.
