Waitlist for new clients
Hi! My name is Amber and I am an LCSW in Portland, Oregon. I have much experience working with teens, families, and adults particularly around trauma and more severe symptoms of anxiety and depression. My experience has also brought me to working with those with addiction, chronic pain, comorbid disorders, body image issues, gender questions, and self-harm. I have a particular affinity for people who have endured trauma and who feel like they are outsiders. I pride myself in being culturally sensitive and welcoming to all, and someone who works as part of the LGBTQIA+ community.
I am a lifelong student of the human brain and how trauma impacts the body and mind. I bring a lot of trauma therapy interventions into my work, and will continue training in this field. I use EMDR, DBT, mindfulness, attachment, IFS, and somatic interventions. Events happened and you adapted and coped the best you could. You're fighting and deeply strong.
I welcome the opportunity to work beside you in your life journey. I believe you're more than good enough, you're lovable, and deserving. You show courage and a desire to change. I bring my full self to create a welcoming sanctuary. Here, you can feel safe to open and uncurl like a fern. Together, you will move from surviving to thriving in a safe space.
