Hello, I’m Amber.
I want to start by taking a moment to acknowledge your courageous choice to seek therapy, whether for yourself and/or child this IS an act of bravery.
Over the last 5 years my clinical work has been focused on supporting families who are seeking treatment due to relational struggles between parent and child. Identified struggles include, but are not limited to, challenges with attachment, trauma, emotional regulation, pre and postpartum concerns, anxiety, and depression. Parenthood is hard, and can be filled with many battles, especially when your child is struggling, acting out and unable to communicate their needs.
I practice from a relationship-based model, it is my belief that relational safety and security is the vehicle that drives healing. I utilize play and/or talk therapy to offer new skills to understand your child’s behaviors, your emotions, or both. My treatment approach is tailored to you, your child and family’s specific needs using modalities, such as Infant Mental Health, Play Therapy, Infant/Child Parent Psychotherapy, Mindfulness, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Family System Theory.
Providing support and insight to infants, young children and their parents on their journey through life continues to be the greatest gift and source of joy for me. Thank you for taking this brave first step.
