About Me

Amber offers a warm, non-judgemental online space where you can feel fully supported. She welcomes clients of all ages—from children to older adults—helping each explore their unique concerns. Her compassionate approach guides you through challenges at your own pace. For those needing clarity on thinking patterns, in-person cognitive assessments are also available. Amber is a good match for anyone seeking a truly open and collaborative therapeutic experience.

Approach

Alongside that supportive atmosphere, I work in focused, practical ways so sessions feel purposeful yet unhurried. Online appointments offer flexible continuity for adolescents, adults and parents in Tauranga and beyond, while in-person assessments are arranged when clearer cognitive insight is needed. We use short, experiential steps, values-based goals and family-informed conversation to build skills between sessions and track progress together. This approach suits people seeking down-to-earth, collaborative work that honours pace and gives clear, usable clarity.
