Individual Therapy for Women Who Are Tired of Carrying It All Alone

Apply for an Individual Session →

Some adults don’t just have “a past.”
They have childhoods they’re still healing from.

Sexual abuse.
Incest.
Family neglect.
Being the parentified child.
Being the “peacemaker” in a toxic home.
Growing up in chaos and calling it normal.
Religious trauma that made you feel small, guilty, or unworthy.
Relationships that mirrored your childhood wounds.
Attracting people who drain you, use you, or abandon you.
Reading every self-help book on the shelf — but still stuck in the same patterns.

If this is you…

You don’t need another book. You need transformation.
And that’s where I come in.

I Specialize in Adults With Deep, Untreated Trauma — The Kind That Starts Before Age 18 and Shows Up Everywhere

The clients who come to me are strong, intelligent women who look like they “have it together,” but internally feel:

  • Exhausted

  • Overwhelmed

  • Invisible

  • Unloved

  • Rejected

  • Triggered

  • Lost

  • Angry

  • Guilty

  • Numb

They’re the ones who were told to “be the good girl,” “make peace,” “don’t make a scene,” or “pray harder.”

They’re the ones who became therapists and healers in their own relationships, always fixing everyone else while slowly breaking inside.

And they’re the ones who desperately want to stop repeating childhood patterns in their adult relationships.

That’s my specialty.

Why Clients Switch to Me After Leaving Other Therapists

Because I’m not here to judge you.
I’m not here to sugarcoat.
I’m not here to keep you in therapy for three years seeing zero change.

My clients come to me because they heard:

🔥 “Amber is a straight shooter.”
🔥 “She gets quick results.”
🔥 “She doesn’t judge you — at all.”
🔥 “She understands trauma in ways other therapists didn’t.”
🔥 “She tells me the truth AND shows me how to change.”

This is trauma therapy + emotional rewiring + boundaries + self-worth — all wrapped inside a safe, culturally aware space where nothing shocks me.

Nothing.

The Women I Work Best With (Ages 20–40)

I love working with women who:

  • Grew up with trauma they’ve never spoken out loud

  • Are done attracting emotionally unavailable or toxic partners

  • Want to understand why they can’t stay in a healthy relationship

  • Want boundaries but feel guilty setting them

  • Read every self-help book but don’t know how to apply anything

  • Feel like they’re “too much” or “not enough” at the same time

  • Are rebuilding after religious, cultural, or family-based shame

  • Are ready to stop being the doormat

I always tell my clients:

“If you lay down like a doormat, why are you surprised people walk on you?”
My job is to help you stand up — emotionally, mentally, spiritually — and stay standing.

How We Transform Your Life

I combine:

Trauma-Informed Care
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
Inner Child & Attachment Work
Real-life boundary setting
Cognitive restructuring
Identity healing

This isn’t “talk therapy.”
This is root-cause work that changes who you become.

Who I Serve

I work with:

  • Black, White, Hispanic, Jewish, and culturally diverse women

  • Middle-class to ultra-high-net-worth individuals

  • First-generation strivers

  • Women from strict or religious backgrounds

  • Professionals, entrepreneurs, educators, therapists, and mothers

Trauma doesn’t discriminate — and neither do I.

Let’s Be Honest

Because of the level of intensity and personalization in my work,
I only take a limited number of individual clients at a time.

Once those spots are full, they’re full.

If you’re reading this and a spot is open, it means someone completed their journey — and their seat is temporarily available.

If You’re Ready to Change Your Entire Story…

Not just the symptoms.
Not just the patterns.
Not just the relationships.

YOU.

If you’re tired of surviving, tired of shrinking, tired of repeating, tired of hurting…

This is where you stop breaking and start becoming.

(Serious clients only — this level of work isn’t for everyone.)

ADULT TRAUMA FAQ SECTION

FAQ: How do I know if I need trauma therapy?

If you’re repeating the same relationship patterns, struggling with boundaries, overthinking everything, or carrying pain from childhood (even if you've never said it out loud), trauma therapy isn’t just helpful — it’s necessary.

FAQ: I’ve been in therapy before and it didn’t work. How is this different?

Most clients find me after they leave a therapist who judged them, minimized them, or gave them surface-level advice.
My approach is:

  • Direct

  • Trauma-informed

  • Root-cause focused

  • Fast-moving

  • Non-judgmental

Clients come to me because they finally want results — not just conversations.

FAQ: What kinds of trauma do you specialize in?

I work with adults carrying deep, early trauma such as:

  • Childhood sexual abuse

  • Incest

  • Emotional neglect

  • Toxic or narcissistic parents

  • Religious trauma

  • Parentified child roles

  • Being the “peacemaker” in a dysfunctional family

  • Attachment trauma in relationships

  • Being stuck in toxic relationship cycles

If it shaped you, I can help you unlearn it.

FAQ: Why do I keep choosing the wrong people?

Your childhood teaches you what “love” feels like — even if it was unsafe.
We work on rewiring those patterns so you stop confusing trauma bonds with chemistry.

FAQ: Can you help me set boundaries? I feel guilty every time I try.

YES.
Boundaries aren’t natural when you were raised to be “good,” “quiet,” “helpful,” or “the fixer.”
I teach boundaries that feel:

  • Clear

  • Strong

  • Guilt-free

  • Aligned with your worth

No more doormat energy.

FAQ: Why am I still struggling in my 20s and 30s? Shouldn’t I be over my childhood by now?

Childhood trauma doesn’t disappear with age.
It shows up as:

  • Anxiety

  • People-pleasing

  • Over-functioning

  • Shame

  • Relationship chaos

  • Attracting emotionally unavailable people

  • Feeling “not enough” or “too much”

You’re not broken — you’re wounded. And wounds can heal.

FAQ: Do you work with clients from different cultures or religious backgrounds?

Absolutely.
I serve Black, White, Hispanic, Jewish, first-generation, Christian, secular, and culturally diverse clients — from middle-class to ultra-high-net-worth.
Trauma is universal.
Healing is personal.

FAQ: Do you take everyone who applies?

No.
Because the work is deep and high-touch, I only accept a limited number of adult clients at a time.
If a spot is available, it means another client successfully graduated.
