J’Amy discovered her passion for holistic wellness while pursuing her bachelors degree in Recreational Therapy and minor of Psychology at the University of Utah. During her years at school she gained skills and experience working with clients from a diverse range of backgrounds. She found her stride while working with children and adolescents and realized her ultimate career goal was to provide preventative mental health services to those same populations. She was most drawn to how meaningful and realistic leisure opportunities and mindfulness practices can improve ones’ quality of life. She is excited to bring her skills as a Certified Therapeutic Recreation Specialist to the Mountain Valley team. Outside of work, J’Amy enjoys spending her time outside and with loved ones, preferably at the same time! During the warm months she enjoys gardening, backpacking, and spending time on the water. As the weather cools, she likes to spend time on her skis or getting cozy with a good book.
