With over 30 years of experience, I specialize in the treatment of anxiety, depression, eating disorders and trauma. I use evidence-based approaches that help clients identify changes they would like to make to their actions or thought process. When addressing trauma, we review traumatic memories and reduce their emotional intensity, specifically EMDR and Trauma focused CBT. Together, we work at a pace that feels manageable, allowing healing to unfold thoughtfully and safely. Therapy is about understanding your story, strengthening resilience, and helping you move toward greater peace and stability.

Anxiety and trauma are powerful forces that shape how we see ourselves, others, and the world. While good anxiety helps us perform at our best, too much anxiety can be crippling and hold us back from the life we desire to live. Everyone has encounters with trauma and anxiety on some level—so the real question is, "Is how is it affecting your life today? Some people learn to manage anxiety or recover from trauma with time, but most get stuck in some area of their life. If you find yourself feeling stuck or dissatisfied with an area of your life, I want to help you gain the tools to strive to live the life you were meant to live!

Hello, I’m Amber Rose, a licensed marriage and family therapist and board approved supervisor for those on the LMFT and LPCC track. I founded and have owned Fuller Living & Associates, for 12 years. Over the past decade, I’ve walked alongside both clients and clinicians as they’ve found their way back from burnout, heartbreak, and loss toward clarity, purpose, and peace. After years of building and leading one of Minnesota’s most trusted mental health practices, I’ve transitioned into a new season—one that allows me to focus on what I love most: helping others reconnect with who they were created to be.

Therapy for me is the art, informed by the psychological sciences, of helping a person bring integration and wholeness to their life with the profound understanding that the human person has the potential to be more beautiful after we experience trauma in whatever form than before. I’m convinced this is true, even if it may sound hard to believe and just a nice-sounding statement.

You know you need, and want more out of your relationship, and it's not too late.

My counseling philosophy seeks to find the root of issues, rather than only focusing on managing surface-level symptoms. I incorporate positive psychology, Attachment theory, Family Systems, and Jungian analysis- including a focus on Personality Types, as identified by the Myers-Briggs (MBTI). I believe change occurs in therapy when the client is able to identify the things that are holding them back or distracting them from finding fulfillment in developing their true self. My work as a therapist is to partner with you on your journey toward wholeness as a safe, consistent, trustworthy listener and helper.

My ideal client is someone at a turning point. They may be facing legal concerns, family pressure, work consequences, or personal doubts about their substance use. Some come because they have to. Others come because they’re tired of the stress, uncertainty, or patterns that aren’t serving them. Either way, they want clarity.

Christian Therapists
Why is it important for a therapist to be culturally sensitive?
Therapists and clients don’t need to share the same belief system or background to be able to work effectively together, but a therapist whose training includes a focus on cultural competence may be better able to form a therapeutic bond with individuals from a range of backgrounds, as they will have experience in tailoring their approach to each client—and will be prepared to acknowledge and consider the effects of culture, religion, and other factors on each individual.

Why is it important to find a therapist sensitive to Christian values?
Each person brings a unique history and background to therapy, making it important to find a licensed therapist who is trained in a broad range of treatment modalities. In addition, for people who grow up in a faith tradition that strongly influences the way they conduct their everyday life, finding a therapist who understands or shares that background can ease the disclosure of sensitive information and facilitate the therapeutic process. For some clients, a Christian therapist is likely to incorporate faith-based principles into emotional healing techniques.

How do I recognize an effective Christian therapist?
Christian therapists are licensed mental health professionals—holding a master’s or doctoral degree in medicine, nursing, psychology, counseling, social work, or marriage and family therapy—who are also familiar with Christian beliefs and values. They have an understanding of the importance that Christian principles play in the lives of individuals and families, which allows them to be especially sensitive to the kinds of struggles that can affect daily functioning. Like all effective therapists, a Christian therapist will have undergone training and certification in a variety of treatment modalities that help people through crises and enable them to master the challenges of life.

Why might someone feel comfortable with a Christian therapist?
While training, qualifications, and experience are always important, research has long established that a strong alliance between client and therapist is a major contributor to therapeutic success. An alliance is likely to be strengthened with a therapist who not only is responsive to questions and concerns but also shares a client’s faith and values. Sensitivity to spiritual matters as well as to everyday struggles can provide a welcome sense of safety and contribute to the bond between client and therapist, both of which support the therapeutic process.

Who is included in Psychology Today’s directory of Christian therapists?
The directory of Christian therapists includes professionals who have shared their background in their profiles. However, not all therapists choose to disclose this information, and they may not appear in search results for this reason. The directory also shows therapists who indicate that they have extensive experience working with Christian clients, regardless of their own background or religious affiliation.
