About Amber

She works with a wide range of concerns including phobias, panic, obsessive-compulsive patterns, dissociation, and relationship communication problems.

She has about 10 years of experience as a therapist and holds licenses as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and a Licensed Professional Counselor.
Background and approach
Amber keeps language simple in sessions and uses humor when it fits. She prefers a collaborative relationship where both people take an active role in planning care. Amber combines cognitive-behavioral techniques with solution-focused and trauma-informed methods.
In practice that means identifying unhelpful thoughts, trying small behavioral experiments, and setting short-term, achievable goals. For trauma-related concerns she uses focused strategies to help people process distressing events at a manageable pace. Sessions are shaped to the person’s needs.
Amber tailors pacing, homework, and conversation style to what helps each person make steady progress. She also works with topics that are sometimes hard to name, such as sexual diversity and kink, fertility struggles, or recovery after domestic violence. Her training background includes a master’s degree in mental health counseling and family and marriage counseling.
Amber continues to read current research and attends professional development to refine her skills. She aims to guide people toward clearer thinking and more usable coping tools.
Online approaches that focus on goals and healing
Amber uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; this approach is useful for anxiety, panic, obsessive thinking, and mood shifts. She also uses Trauma-Focused techniques to help people process distressing events in steps, reduce intense reactions, and build safer ways to cope.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Amber collaborates with each person to choose and adjust methods based on their goals, symptoms, and comfort level. She checks in about what is working and makes changes together when needed.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video works well when face-to-face interaction helps, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging is useful for brief check-ins or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy going around work, family, or travel while still using the approaches described above.
