Great to meet you!

Hi! I’m Amber, a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker who believes everyone deserves a safe, supportive space to be heard. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, and relationship challenges using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and other evidence-based approaches. My goal is to help you build practical skills, increase confidence, and create meaningful, lasting change.

My approach to therapy

My approach to therapy with my clients are collaborative, compassionate, holistic, humanistic, and goal-oriented. I tailor treatment to each person’s unique needs and work at a pace that feels comfortable and supportive.

What you can expect from me

Our first session is an opportunity to get to know each other. We’ll talk about what’s bringing you to therapy, your goals, and what you hope to achieve. Together, we’ll create a plan that fits your needs so you can leave with a clear sense of direction and confidence in the therapy process.
