“It has been said that time heals all wounds. The truth is that time does not heal anything. It merely passes. It is what we do during the passing of time that helps or hinders the healing process.” -Jay Marshall

Hello, my name is Amy Salas, and I am an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist at Fusion Care Group. I have over seven years of experience working in the mental health field and work with children, adolescents, and adults in both inpatient and outpatient settings. While I enjoy supporting clients of all ages, I am especially passionate about working with children and teens, which has become my primary niche and area of focus.

I specialize in helping children and adolescents navigate emotional and behavioral challenges, including opposition and defiance, anger, self-harm, low self-esteem, anxiety, depression, and trauma-related symptoms. I strive to create a safe, supportive, and engaging environment where young clients feel heard, understood, and empowered to grow.

I also work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, PTSD, relationship issues, life transitions, emotional difficulties, and family-related stressors. In addition, I provide parent coaching to help families strengthen communication, build healthy connections, and better support their children’s emotional needs.

My therapeutic approach is compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to each client’s unique needs and goals. I utilize evidence-based modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), and I am basic trained in Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART). I also offer faith-based counseling for clients who wish to incorporate spirituality into their healing journey.

I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Brigham Young University and my Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology with an emphasis in Marriage and Family Therapy from Azusa Pacific University.

I aim to provide a warm, nonjudgmental, and empathetic space where clients feel safe to express themselves openly. I approach every client with unconditional positive regard and strive to help individuals develop the tools, insight, and confidence needed to live meaningful and fulfilling lives.
