Appointments from Anywhere

Virtual care is the future of healthcare – especially when it comes to mental health care. Many people now have access to quicker, safer, and easier appointments. This is why we’ve started our virtual-only private practice. No matter what mental health challenge you’re currently struggling with, Amy and her network of collaborative practitioners are here to help. All you need is a safe space, good connection, and you’re ready to receive the care you need!

MEET OUR STAFF

Dr. Amy Edwards

PSYCHIATRIST / OWNER

I did undergraduate, medical school education, and residency training all at the University of Michigan Ann Arbor. I have worked in just about every kind of psychiatric setting you can think of in about every size town, from the Detroit suburbs to rural Alaska. I have provided care in inpatient, consultation/liaison, community mental health, and more traditional outpatient care settings. I have worked as a medical director, Chief Medical Officer, and staff psychiatrist and with a range of patients from the chronically mentally ill and psychotic to high functioning professionals with straightforward mood and anxiety disorders.

The thing that I love most is following patients young and old and providing care that enhances their life experience across time. The outpatient setting has my heart because I get to see my patients for years.

TeleHealth options are opening the possibility to maintain a provider/patient relationship throughout their entire life with little if any interruption due to change in geographic location. I enjoy seeing people ask for help and get a result that exceeds their expectations. I feel so lucky to hear such diverse and interesting stories and help write the next chapters even better.

Nicole Adamson

OFFICE MANAGER

I am Nicole Adamson, office manager for Dr. Edwards. I have been in social services for over 30 years. This is my first time on this side of the desk. My prior history has been working with clients. This is a good learning curve and I am excited to be learning new things and getting to know all of the clients.

I am learning how to do billing — so be patient. I may not have all the answers right away.

I love all animals and am very passionate about them. In the summertime, I love spending time outdoors with my daughter and granddaughter.

I believe we are all on our journey and when we work on ourselves, we become the best version of ourselves.

Milo

OFFICE THERAPY DOG

Hi! I’m Milo. I’m the official office Therapy Pet.

I came into Dr. Edward’s life shortly after she lost her husband and long-time family and office therapy pet within three weeks of each other. I came into Dr. Edward’s life at just the right time when she needed me! I love giving cuddles and kisses to make everyone’s day better. Now that the office has transitioned to telehealth, I spend my days cuddling my coworkers, running outside with the wind in my hair, and keeping my other fur siblings Jack Jack and Yuka in line. It’s tough work, but I love what I do!

When I’m not working, I love spending the weekends with my two human sisters Molly and Emma. Molly does dance competitions and I am often on the road to cheer her on at her competitions. I love traveling and getting to meet all the new people we see when we travel.

When mom is off work, we spend time with the family and out enjoying the beautiful Treasure Valley. We always have so much fun.

Thank you so much for trusting me to be your Therapy Dog! I can’t imagine doing anything else!

What Patients are Saying

"I was a little nervous to change psychiatrists when I moved to Idaho but Dr. Edwards has made the transition seamless and positive. She quickly developed rapport, understood my situation, and supported me completely. I highly recommend Dr. Edwards."

"Thanks again for being my doctor. I'd be lost without you."

"Dr. Edwards is a real life saver...literally! Her manner is kind and caring and professional. She is very interested in all aspects of her patients’ care and she listens. We have been through four different doctors trying to find the right solution for my daughter’s illness. Dr. Edwards is extremely knowledgeable and safety prescribes the best possible solutions."
