My Passion for Counseling

My name is Amber, and I am so excited that you are taking the steps to explore counseling! I view therapy as an opportunity to go on an adventure together, and I want to come alongside you and support you on your unique journey. If you are looking for a nonjudgmental, kind, and compassionate person to discover and pursue the healing, grace and abundant love that God has for you, I would love to meet! I am committed to offering you a non-judgmental safe place to explore, grow, and pursue the good things that God has for you, and I let you determine how much we incorporate faith in session.

I am open to working with children, teens, young adults, and adults.

Types of Counseling I Provide

I am passionate about helping people find balance, peace, and joy by exploring the mind, body, and spirit connection from a holistic perspective, and I use a combination of different therapeutic techniques such as cognitive behavioral, somatic/body movement work, narrative therapy, play therapy techniques and solutions focused therapy to help provide each person with the unique counseling experience that they are seeking. I have a passion for helping people who are dealing with ADHD, anxiety, body image concerns, depression, grief, self-esteem, identity work, family of origin issues, women’s issues, prenatal/postnatal issues, and parenting concerns.

My Education

I have a Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology from Bethel University. I have 15+ years of experience advising, mentoring, and ministering to children, teens, young adults, and women in a variety of settings including private homes, schools, and churches. I am a certified facilitator of the Prepare/Enrich relationship inventory used in premarital and marital counseling.
