About

Longing for intimacy is a ministry that equips and encourages women in finding freedom, healing, wholeness, and intimacy with Jesus.

Amy Riordan is an author, speaker, writer, and licensed pastoral counselor. She also speaks nationally on pornography addiction recovery for women, sexuality, overcoming shame, and pursuing intimacy with Jesus. She and her husband, Kevin, live in PA and have two children.

In 2010, Amy started sharing her story on her blog, Longing for Intimacy. She started sharing the ways Jesus was healing her heart and setting her free. Jesus has continued to do an amazing work in her life, and she loves seeing Him continue to heal hearts and set other women free.

Amy’s book, “Longing for Intimacy: Hope for Women Struggling with Same-Sex Attraction” was released in March 2018. As she surrendered her sexuality and heart to Jesus, Amy broke free from a pornography addiction, lust, and many layers of shame. It is now available in paperback and Kindle on Amazon.
