Teen Substance Abuse Counselors for Drug and Alcohol Treatment

Amy is a certified substance abuse counselor with over 27 years of experience working with young people and their families. Amy is from Houston, Texas where she was introduced to the Palmer Drug Abuse Program (PDAP) before later getting sober at the Insight Program in Atlanta, GA. It was here that she found her passion for helping others who struggle with drug abuse. Following the passion, she became an Intensive Outpatient Counselor and later moved to St. Louis in 1995. She later became the Administrator and high-school support counselor for The Crossroads Program in 1997. Because of this work with area high schools, Amy worked with Ken Mcmanus LPC to start the Rockwood School District’s “second chances” program, facilitating this program for 3 years.

Amy is currently the Executive Director for The Crossroads Program. Amy teaches all over Missouri and Atlanta, Georgia to other professionals on topics ranging from Adolescent Treatment to Ethics. Amy actively works with Partners In Education (PIE) and several drug-free coalitions in Missouri, Including Alliance for Healthy Communities in the Parkway School District, Rockwood Drug Free Coalition in the Rockwood School District, and C.R.U.S.H. (Community Resources United to Stop Heroin). She also helped coordinate the Missouri’s “Marijuana Educational Tour” with Dr. Christian Thurstone with Think Again MO in 2014.  Amy became the director of The Crossroads Program in 2017.

Amy is dedicated and passionate about recovery. She is committed to providing the best drug and alcohol programs for adolescents/young adults and their families. Along with the staff of The Crossroads Program, she is constantly working to create opportunities for young people and their families to find healthier, more satisfying lifestyles without the use of mind-changing chemicals. She knows that if a young person can learn to be joyful and confident without the use of substances, they will enjoy a bright and successful life.
