Reclaim your truth, your peace, and the life you deserve!

Welcome to Empowering Cycle Breakers — where all women, 18 years of age and beyond, actively repair, re-pattern, and reclaim their lives.

After nearly two decades working in the psychology of adult learning, Amy McIntosh is following her life's calling to create a safe, therapeutic space for women navigating a variety of life's challenges, identity shifts, and the desire for meaningful transformation.

With a trauma-informed approach, she partners with clients to explore new ways of relating to themselves and others, fostering self-trust, healing, and authentic expression.

Amy combines her professional training with her lived experience to bring both depth and compassion to her work.

Amy believes growth is not just about change, but about becoming more fully who we are meant to be.

“I worked with Amy when I was going through my divorce and she was such an amazing support! I can still hear her voice in my head telling me to be more kind to myself.

The tools she offered me come in handy again, and again, and again…”
