Great to meet you!

My name is Amber and I'm a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor specializing in maternal mental health. I help mothers navigate the transitions, emotions, and decisions that come along with motherhood. I also enjoy working with women throughout any life transition such as divorce, navigating step-family dynamics, or teens transitioning into adulthood. I have advanced training in perinatal mental health from Postpartum Support International and am pursuing my Perinatal Mental Health certification through them, as well.

My approach to therapy

My work is rooted in an attachment and relationship-based perspective, as I fully believe in the power of relationships to heal. I have advanced training in Perinatal Interpersonal Psychotherapy and Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) and experience using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Motivational Interviewing.

What you can expect from me

No one knows you better than you. My goal is to walk alongside you as you navigate the new landscape of motherhood or your changing family, as you grow and eventually come back to yourself. We will work together to help you feel supported as a mom and build the skills and relationships you need to cope with these transitions. Wherever you're at in your motherhood journey, I am honored to help you make sense and meaning out of your role as a mother.
