HI! I'm Amber, I am a licensed clinical social worker and have been a therapist for over 15 years. I help people navigate life’s challenges when things feel overwhelming, stuck, or disconnected. I often work with people experiencing burnout, life transitions, and the stress that comes with managing work, relationships, or parenting—times when a lot is being asked of you and it’s hard to find your footing.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

My approach is collaborative and down-to-earth, with a focus on both understanding what’s going on and making practical, sustainable changes. In our work together, there’s space for honesty, curiosity, and a little humor when it fits. I aim to create an environment where you can show up as you are and start to reconnect with yourself in a way that feels real and manageable.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

One of my strengths is an eclectic approach to therapy. I don't take a one-size-fits-all approach and I won't just sit back and nod. I focus on helping you understand what's going on while also finding ways to move forward in a way that feels grounded and manageable.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I help people navigate life's challenges through creativity and self-expression. My approach is collaborative and down-to-earth, with space for both reflection and practical change. I tend to work well with people who are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from themselves and are looking for a different way forward. I make room for curiosity, honesty and a little humor when it fits.

I integrate ideas of diffusion and reducing the "volume" on unhelpful thoughts to reduce distress.

Examining our thoughts, feeling and behaviors is an important aspect of change. I weave this idea throughout my work.

Solution Focused Brief Treatment

My approach is solution focused and meeting my clients where they are.
