Hello, I'm Amber, a dedicated and compassionate trauma-informed therapist committed to providing a safe and empathetic space for individuals on their healing journey. With a background in psychology and extensive training, I bring a holistic approach that integrates psychodynamic, person-centered, mind-body approach and cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) techniques to support clients in their path to recovery. Incorporating a mind-body approach in therapy involves recognizing and addressing the interconnectedness of mental and physical health. This approach may include techniques such as mindfulness, deep breathing, or progressive muscle relaxation to help clients become more aware of how their thoughts and emotions influence their physical sensations. By integrating practices that focus on bodily awareness and self-regulation, therapists can help clients manage stress, reduce anxiety, and improve overall well-being. My psychodynamic orientation allows me to help clients delve into the unconscious aspects of their psyche, understanding how past experiences shape current thoughts and behaviors. Through this exploration, we work together to identify patterns, gain insight into unresolved conflicts, and promote long-term personal growth. In addition to the psychodynamic approach, I integrate person-centered therapy principles, emphasizing the importance of the therapeutic relationship. I believe in the inherent goodness and resilience of individuals and strive to create a space where clients feel heard, valued, and empowered to navigate their unique healing process. Furthermore, my practice incorporates elements of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), focusing on identifying and challenging negative thought patterns and behaviors. This approach allows us to develop practical strategies for coping with the impact of trauma, fostering resilience and promoting positive change. With a commitment to ongoing professional development and staying informed about the latest advancements in trauma treatment, I am dedicated to providing evidence-based and client-centered care. I am here to support you on your journey towards healing, personal empowerment, and a more fulfilling life.

I’m a trauma therapist specializing in complex trauma, including childhood emotional neglect, narcissistic abuse, and family-of-origin wounds. If you’re carrying the invisible weight of C-PTSD — if you’ve always had to be strong, hyper-aware, or perform to survive — you’re not alone, and you don’t have to keep doing it all by yourself. I’m especially passionate about working with LGBTQIA+ and non-binary folks navigating identity, safety, and belonging. Many of my clients are untangling the pain of being unseen, misgendered, or emotionally exiled by those closest to them. Together, we create space for your grief, brilliance, queerness, and power. My style is warm, intuitive, and relational — with humor woven in. Healing can be hard, but it doesn’t have to be humorless. I use trauma-informed approaches like Brainspotting and parts work to support people dealing with dissociation, people-pleasing, and the persistent voice of an inner critic. This work is sacred to me. You’re not too much or broken — you’re becoming. This is a welcoming space for people of all beliefs and backgrounds. Whether you voted for Trump, Biden, or anyone else — you are welcome here. If you’ve felt judged or abandoned for your views or service, this is your space too. Because of my specialization, I’m not the right fit for anxiety disorders, OCD, addiction, parenting concerns, ADHD, autism, stress management, or medical trauma. I also don’t work with psychosis, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, terminal illness, or court-ordered therapy. I’m a gentle therapist — not pushy or highly directive. If you prefer CBT or brief, solution-focused work, I may not be the best fit. If I’m not the right person for your needs, I’ll gladly help connect you with someone who is.

Many individuals face emotional challenges like anxiety, depression, or anger that interfere with daily functioning — often rooted in unresolved trauma or chronic stress. My goal is to support you or your loved ones in improving your quality of life and emotional well-being. I specialize in trauma-focused therapy and use evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), and Trauma-Focused CBT (TF-CBT). I also offer Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy when appropriate. EMDR can be a powerful tool for healing PTSD and does not require ongoing therapy outside of EMDR sessions unless desired. I strive to make therapy approachable and comfortable, offering a calm, welcoming space where clients feel seen and supported. Whether you’re navigating life stressors, recovering from trauma, or just need someone to talk to — I’m here to walk alongside you in your healing journey.

Allow me to introduce myself. I am a flawed person saved by grace interested in helping you become the best version of yourself that you have been designed to be. I have done my work and continue to do my work and now willing to help you in the capacity you need to be whole and healthy. I believe we never arrive; however, we remain on an axle ever evolving to find that balance in the universe. I have learned over the years you cannot keep what you have unless you are willing to be a blessing to others. I have been blessed with a wealth of knowledge and well over 20 years of experience I am willing to share, meeting you where you are in your process of healing. My experience in Ministry, years of working in the substance abuse and mental health field has afforded me the opportunity to witness the miraculous in the lives of so many. My therapeutic approach is derived from techniques inspired by Aaron Beck who instituted Cognitive Therapy. In addition, I strongly believe in the essential factors necessary for growth from a person- centered perspective “self-actualization, empathy, and unconditional positive regard.” Let your Faith be bigger than your fear. I am here. Help me, help you, together we will accomplish an amazing feat.

Hi there! I am a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist for residents of Florida and Minnesota. I received my Masters degree in Tampa, Florida and have been practicing for 10 years. I help adults get from point A to B by asking Solution-Focused questions. People have a lot more potential then they believe. My job as your Therapist is to ask you the questions that will make you think about your past accomplishments, skills/strengths, resources and experience and see if someway, somehow those 'solutions' can help you move forward in a more positive, productive way today.
