About me

I did not come into this work on accident. I believe that therapists can only take people as far as they have journeyed themselves. I am here because I have had my own struggles, sadness, hurt, trauma and growth and it has led me to become passionate about the ability we have to heal. I believe that being truly seen, truly understood, and having someone to help guide you through the challenges of life is profoundly powerful to our happiness, wholeness and experience of the world and each other.

I have been doing this work for nearly 6 years and specialize in offering DBT, GESTALT, EMDR and CBT to people whom have experienced grief, loss, have low self-esteem, trauma, anxiety and depression. I have done extensive work with people whom have BPD and love that work deeply. I use a combination of these modalities and client centered work to learn and understand you, while helping you learn about and understand yourself.

I have been trained in the above modalities and used them in my own therapy. I have worked for several years with co-occurring disorders, and severe and persistent mental health disorders. This job is my passion and I am so grateful I get to do it

Please note in general I check messages on Mon, Wed, and Fri at 10pm and response at those times. I will have increased availability in the near future. Thank you for seeking help to better yourself and being brave enough to start this journey-no matter whom your guide ends up being.

Amber is one of the better therapists I’ve had. She is kind, supportive, very knowledgeable and is able to take on any situation I need help with. I’m very impressed with the level of care as I was reluctant to join Better Help. I feel very thankful I was assigned to Amber!

Having Amber in my corner is truly the blessing I didn’t know I needed. Finding a therapist who I can relate to in so many ways—who truly understands me and my inner feelings and struggles is nothing short of a God-send. She is empathetic, she’s gentle, she’s wise, she’s incredibly patient, kind and intuitive. Sessions with her are always very productive and she gives me things to consider even after the session is over. I’m so grateful for her and I will remain a returning client for as long as she practices.

She always listens to me without judgment no matter how many times I've talked about the same subject. She has given me really good tools I use for my anxiety and I'm very greatful for me.

Amber has been so helpful, understanding, and supportive during our time together. She gives nonjudgmental space for me to process little and big things in my world. Grateful our paths have crossed!
