Sessions address specific concerns such as panic attacks, body image, and feelings of isolation. Amberly uses practical tools drawn from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Mindfulness Therapy. In sessions she helps people notice unhelpful thought patterns, try small behavior changes, and build habits that match their values.

She works with people to set realistic goals and to practice skills between meetings. Her goal is to help clients regain a sense of direction and self-compassion. People leave sessions with concrete steps they can use right away.

04Online support
Evidence-informed approaches for online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small, meaningful steps toward those values. It emphasizes noticing thoughts without getting stuck in them and practicing actions that align with personal goals.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thinking that keep problems going and testing new behaviors to change how people feel. It is often useful for anxiety, depression, panic attacks, and low self-esteem.
Mindfulness Therapy trains attention to the present moment and simple breathing or awareness practices. These skills can reduce rumination, lower stress, and make daily coping feel easier.
Amberly will work collaboratively to find the right mix of these approaches based on each person’s needs, goals, and preferences. She treats the process as a team effort and adjusts methods if something is not helping.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video and phone let people have a longer conversation, while chat and text can be used for shorter check-ins or to fit a busy schedule. These formats make scheduling flexible and help people keep consistent work on skills between appointments.
