I would be unable to pen the right words to satisfy the reservations you may have about seeking therapy when you need it. Only you can do that. There are no magic words that make problems go away, and there certainly aren’t numinous websites or YouTube videos that will do the work for you. Therapy is something very personal and wholly unique to you. It is a journey that can often be deeply fulfilling, yet like anything worth doing in life, it can also be challenging.

Taking that first step to contact a therapist can feel overwhelmingly anxiety-inducing. If you are grappling with stress, burnout, or mental exhaustion, you may feel as if you’ve hit a dead end or you can’t see beyond your current struggles. You know that saying, "you can’t see the forest for the trees"? This is the case when you live in your own thoughts. It becomes hard to gain perspective. Discovering, learning and applying practical tools to help you manage your stress and make positive changes in your life is possible.

You’re exhausted. Looking at the clock, you see the day is almost over, and your to-do list is longer now than it was this morning. There are simply not enough hours in the day to get everything done. You’re drowning as each new task threatens to drag you under and leave you gasping for air. Just when you’re about to take a moment for yourself, someone asks you for help, and your guilt won’t allow you to say “no.” You haven’t been able to take time for yourself in years. Lately, your existence seems to belong to everyone but you. You don’t even remember the dreams and goals you once had. There must be more to life than this, in you.

We’re all doing the best we can with what we have to work with. Sometimes we can use some extra tools in our toolbox to support us in managing when life occurrences seem to pile up and we just need a break. Amber has experience in treating a range of symptoms, including those related to PTSD, anxiety and depression.

The world has continues to go through many changes but we have the resilience to face them, we just need to have the resources.

We all need support throughout our lives, and you may be looking for an additional resource in your life to help you process lived experiences, problem-solve, or understand yourself in a deeper way. You may be struggling with anxiety, the challenges of caregiving, work stress and burnout, relationship challenges, or working through grief, loss, or bereavement. Life transitions may bring about new stressors which require new and different coping skills. You want to feel grounded again and regain clarity of purpose in your personal and/or professional lives. You are ready to explore what is possible and are looking for collaboration.

Hello! I provide therapy for youth, families, and individuals and have worked with various populations. I believe that everyone deserves a sense of belonging and a safe place to land while navigating life's challenges. I have experience treating complex trauma, family conflict, peer conflict, identity exploration, anxiety, depression, the impacts of social media/devices, and parenting challenges. I understand that everyone's mental health journey looks different. No matter what you may be facing, I would be honored to walk alongside you through it.

I enjoy working with adults in an individual setting. I like helping with transitional issues, stress management, and depression. With these myriad of needs, my goal is to explore what you hope to get out of treatment so we can get you there and remind you how much progress you have made on your difficult days.

At some point we’ve all felt overwhelmed, confused or worried about a relationship, life decision or major choice we’ve had to make. Other times we experience sadness because what we wanted did not work out. Sometimes unfortunate things happen to us and no matter what we do, we can’t forget. We feel powerless, out of control and we can’t move on. What we all have in common is that we want to feel fully alive and connected to our loved ones and free of worry, sadness, anger and disappointment. We want to let go of the past and fully live in the present with hope and optimism for the future.
