Hello, I'm Amber. I am a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist (LMFT) and Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) offering individual ($160) and couples ($200)sessions virtually and in-person. I am passionate about the outdoors, animals, music, art, and new adventures and I try to blend this into my therapy as much as possible. In our sessions, we will spend time building a strong therapeutic relationship that will allow us to identify your strengths, your goals, and how to get you there.
Let's dive into your motivations for coming to therapy. I am happy to answer any questions about the process and expectations you may have. I will inquire about things that you are already aware work for you and that do not work for you. We will go at your pace and comfortability, and as time passes and we get to know one another better, I will also challenge you when it seems most appropriate. The goal is for us to have a trusting therapeutic relationship that will allow you to feel safe and confident.
Working with diverse populations in various settings, I have been able to meet others with compassion and kindness. You are not "too much." I am passionate about this work and in helping others. I will provide support and tools that will allow you to meet your goals while healing your relationship with yourself and those around you.
My clients are open minded, accepting of challenges, and ready to rewrite their stories. I have worked within residential and outpatient settings providing care to adolescents, young adults, veterans, houseless individuals, individuals involved in the legal system, couples, and families.
I come from a space of holding unconditional positive regard, no judgement, and remain curious about your perceptions, and maintain compassion towards your experience.
DBT provides skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. I can offer traditional DBT primary focused therapy.
I maintain mindfulness in navigating what is brought to session holding compassion and consideration of the ways in which our experiences have shaped our worldview, perceptions, and how we respond to the people and situations around us.
I offer Couples Counseling at $200 per session. Rather to decrease conflict, prepare for a new chapter, or process everyday life, I enjoy working with couples to develop and improve communication skills, explore themselves and their partner, and establish better methods of overcoming obstacles. I utilize approaches from Gottman and Humanistic approaches to identify tools to best aid you in your goals. LQBTQ+ Allied, Kink Allied, Monogamous and ENM relationships welcomed!
