More about Amber
- 5 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
I am a licensed clinical social worker who specializes in therapy for children, adolescents, and young adults. I work with individuals navigating depression, self-injurious behaviors, anxiety, ADHD, and eating disorders, which can often lead to feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck in unhelpful patterns. My therapeutic style is eclectic and integrative, drawing from evidence-based approaches while also honoring the importance of psychodynamic work—exploring how past experiences shape current thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. I believe that insight, when paired with the right tools, creates real, lasting change.
In our first few sessions, we’ll focus on building a trusting relationship, identifying your goals, and developing a plan to move forward together. I’m passionate about this work because I believe in each person’s ability to heal and grow. It’s a privilege to support clients in building self-awareness and creating a more balanced, fulfilling life.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a 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. Starting at $65 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.
