Request An Appointment

The term “Elysian” is of Greek origin, meaning “heavenly.”  The word, “oak,” reflects the strongest and tallest tree in the Northern Hemisphere – which outlasts almost anything else found on earth. 

Elysian Oaks Life Coaching aims to be heavenly-minded while simultaneously thriving and growing deep roots on earth that will leave a legacy for future generations.  I walk with my clients through specific seasons, providing essential biological, social, psychological, and spiritual support and guidance amidst turmoil, successes, and key relationships.

“Amy has the most remarkable way of gently and thoughtfully asking the questions that help you get to insight. She does so with deep compassion and empathy, unwavering grace and kindness, and clear-eyed vision and insight, all of which make every conversation both a safe space, and an amazing opportunity for growth.”
I met Amy in 2018 when she started supervising visitation with my daughter. Through these years, a friendship has developed and she has been there for me every step of the way. I was always able to turn to her for sincere care, support, and guidance. I am now in a safe place because of her guidance, words of wisdom, and faith in me when I didn't even have faith in myself.

Amy helped me to change my life in major ways and gave me hope again. She taught me strength and resilience techniques and we talked often of faith. She is my idol, she is truly an inspiration, and I am in the process of following in her footsteps to help make a difference in this broken world that we live in.

~Sex-Trafficked Survivor
I have never met a mentor with so much compassion. Amy has stayed close with me, even after I graduated from my program. There is not a single word that I can write down to describe how beautiful Amy's soul is. Meeting her was definitely a life-changing experience and I am forever grateful for it. She never gave up.

~Sex-Trafficked Survivor
Amy is always kind and continues to encourage me in my journey. She just keeps planting seeds within our list of "to-do's." Then when I get to one of my "to-do's" it is the biggest light bulb moment. And I love her even more.
