About me
Hi. My name is Amy L Settles and I look forward to working with you. I been a clinical social worker for 35 years. I received a B.S. degree from Emerson College located in Boston, Ma. where I studied Speech Education and Dramatic Arts. I received a Master of Arts degree from Denver University, where I majored in Interpersonal and Group Communication. In order to pursue my career as a therapist I went to the University of Oklahoma and received a Master of Social Work degree.
I have numerous hours of training in treating Trauma, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, and Couples Therapy . I enjoy working with people from all walks of life. My counseling style is warm, interactive, and collaborative. I use evidence based modalities including cognitive behavioral therapy, interpersonal therapies, mindfulness, and family of origin based interventions. Together we can explore your psychological/emotional needs so I can help you in whatever it is that is troubling you. I will work with you by actively listening to what you have to say. Together we will process what is going on in your life and discuss other options to look at and try. I will give you relevant feedback you can continue processing throughout your therapy journey and beyond.

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Amy Settles. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Regain might be different.
Amy is absolutely amazing. She is very straightforward and honest. Which is exactly what I need
Amy is kind but also firm. She has really helped my partner and I talk about the hard things with honesty. She takes time to address both of our thoughts and feelings. I would definitely recommend her, and really appreciate her candor.
Amy is honest and to the point, which is needed and incredibly helpful. I feel hope I’m an area of life that I haven’t seen light in for a very long time.
She has been instrumental in us getting back in the right path.
My wife and I have been talking to Amy Settles for about a year. We were dealing with relationship issues and some mental health problems. Things are so much better for both of us thanks to her excellent guidance and encouragement. She is tough with us when she needs to be even when it is uncomfortable for us. Still she remains a staunch advocate for our positive wellbeing. We are very grateful for the help she gives us and can recommend her sincerely.
We got matched with Amy and could not be happier with the care we are receiving! We know that we have a journey of growth together but we happy that we have Amy guiding us on it!
Amy is absolutely AMAZING in every single way. Coming into therapy, we did not know what to expect and were incredibly nervous about the process and if this would actually "work" for us. From the start, Amy has been the most honest and intentional therapist and has made an incredibly tough situation feel so easy to navigate and grow from. Our weekly sessions have been constructive, MUCH NEEDED, and 100% worth it.
So much progress has been made in such a short time, and it is all because of Amy! I will recommend her to anyone who is seeking counseling and will continue to go to her. She has become someone that we look forward to sharing the good and bad news with, knowing that she will show support and give the best guidance no matter the circumstance.
I could not recommend her enough and hope that everyone gets to work with someone like her in their lifetime.
Amy makes us stop and think about things we normally wouldn’t consider.
Amy has helped us and our relationship immensely. It was very difficult at first, but as we continued sessions, we have seen much improvement. She’s helped us navigate many significant issues weighing on us personally and in our relationship.
I feel like Amy is very helpful. I like feeling like I’m heard and understood and hearing feedback from and outside perspective.
