More about me

Licensing: LMFT Years in Practice: 12 State: California

I bring my knowledge earned through education, research, and personal experience. I specialize in Trauma and Substance Use. My goal is to help clients break through pain, gain self awareness, and a love for self that replaces a need for chemical dependance. I have over 10 years experience working with various clients who struggle with Substance use, and PTSD. My vast experience has shown an innate ability to work well with Veterans and First Responders and their families. as I have several years experience assisting type “A” personalities deal with decreasing the stigma that goes along with asking for help. Let’s see if together we can find you the path you have been seeking through therapy and self love.

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from an online mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Ranging from $60 to $90 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Amber is very insightful. I would recommend her because she is a therapist that is relatable for me. Her candor helps to get to the deep things and make it a safe space. She is patient, kind, funny, and very knowledgeable on many aspects of therapy.

If you’re looking for a therapist who can cut through all the crap and help you identify and deal with the problems you face, then Amber is the therapist for you. Amber is well versed in the concepts and lingo of modern psychology, and is quite effective at presenting it in terms and practices that are easily understood by the average person. Amber is everything you want in a therapist; understanding, challenging, honest, helpful, candid, insightful and funny.

Overall

This was my first time in therapy and I was really nervous to begin. The first therapist that I got matched with was not my cup of tea and when I got Amber my whole experience changed! She made me feel so comfortable telling her everything that was bothering me and toward the end I couldn’t stop talking. She let me explain my feelings while giving me tools to process them. And I never felt judged, I felt like she really validated what I was feeling and empathized. And when it came down to deciding on the solution to my problem, she realized I was leaning more one way she changed gears and started letting me go about deciding. And then when it came to the decision I ended up choosing the opposite of what we both thought but it’s because I realized what I really wanted. And I owe that all to her! I feel such a relief that I was able to discuss what was bothering me and come to a rational conclusion that wasn’t influenced by anyone and I was able to decide for myself. It felt great, and I can’t wait to keep on going this way! Thank you Amber!
