Hey, I’m Amber. I’m so glad you’re here! I know sometimes it can be pretty scary searching for a therapist who helps you feel known and understood. That's who I hope to be for you. Find your favorite cozy spot and let’s settle in for some laughter and tears.

Cheering your bravery on every step of the way. We’ve got this!

My ideal clients are individuals, couples, teens, and families experiencing relationship struggles, trauma, anxiety, or emotional overwhelm. They often feel stuck in unhealthy patterns, disconnected from loved ones, or burdened by past experiences. They seek understanding, emotional safety, and stronger connections. Their goal is healing, resilience, and meaningful change — to feel more secure in themselves and their relationships, improve communication, and create healthier, more fulfilling lives.

Therapy is an experience where human beings learn to live differently. Differently is the key word. Different can look like less depression, more spontaneity, or deeper and more mutual relationships. Different can be learning to say "yes," "no," or "maybe." Different can be improved physical health, less anxiety, or sustained sobriety. When one begins treatment there's usually a percolating idea of what needs to be different. Helping you clarify the ways you'd like to live differently, what has gotten in your way up to this point, and how those changes can be made is psychotherapy.

Life reads a lot like Dr. Seuss' Oh, the Places You'll Go. Sometimes you'll be waiting, sometimes you're on top, sometimes you fall down hard, and sometimes the darkness overwhelms. You may feel unsure who you are, where to turn, and how to function again. Approaching such times with honesty and curiosity can invite new freedom and healing. Counseling offers a safe place to bring your hopes and pains as you continue on your journey. I'd love to join you in this process.

Whether it is wanting help with depression or anxiety, wanting to work on relationship issues or just wanting to live a richer fuller life, therapy can help. As human beings we are faced with a broad range of challenges. Therapy provides the opportunity to explore thoughts and feelings that contribute to anxiety, depression, and relationship difficulties. It is a place to learn about one’s self and to grow. Emotional pain like physical pain is a signal that something needs to be attended to. Sources can often be found in our early life experiences sometimes involving trauma. Once understood the pain will usually begin to subside.

The clients I serve are often at a crossroads in their life story and unsure of how to close one chapter and begin anew. Clients I enjoy working with recognize that counseling continues outside of the session in self reflection, exploring behavior change, and shifting how we think and relate to ourselves. I find that counseling helps meet goals and needs as diverse as the client, and sometimes goals arise throughout the course of the relationship. No one needs a "good reason" to come to counseling, for the desire to reach out and try will always be sufficient.

Have you been hurt by a past church or religious experience? Has it knocked you off balance and led you to doubt your relationships with other people, with God, or even within yourself? If so, you are not alone. Most of us at some point have walked through various degrees of Spiritual Abuse ranging from mild, disorienting misuse of power to full-blown cult experiences (Religious Trauma). These toxic systems and Spiritual Abuse don't have to have the last word. There is hope for healing, integration, and attachment repair.
