She received her M.A. in Social Service Administration from the University of Chicago and B.S. in Psychology at the Illinois Institute of Technology. Silvia Amor has more than 6 years of experience in the mental health and social service field.

Over the past two years, she has worked extensively with clients with severe and complex attachment traumas; helping them build trusting relationships and resolve relational conflict with value-based behavior. She is most excited about psychodynamic and psychoanalytic theories, EMDR, and DNMS. Silvia Amor is currently working on a manuscript that explores the ramifications of trauma exposure during incarceration.
