Amber Andrews

My communication style

My communication style is casual, supportive, and direct. I strive to create a space that feels safe, human, and non-judgmental. You do not need to have the right words or be perfectly put together for our sessions. Some of my previous clients have shared with me that they appreciate that I don't sit there silently in sessions.

My journey to mental healthcare

I have always been drawn to people’s stories and helping them recognize strengths they may not see in themselves. I believe everyone has the capacity to navigate life’s challenges, but sometimes it takes perspective to help reconnect with your resilience. My work is grounded in the belief that growth happens when people feel understood & supported.

My goals for you

I take a collaborative approach to goal setting, making sure your goals feel meaningful and realistic. Progress is measured through self-reflection and symptom report/tracking. The focus is always on small, achievable steps that add up over time. Part of your care with Rula is completing check-ins that allow us to gauge progress, too.

Our first session

The first session is focused on building rapport and helping you feel comfortable. We will talk about what brought you to therapy, but just as importantly, I want to understand who you are beyond the "problem." There is no pressure to share everything at once. The goal is to create a safe space so therapy feels supportive rather than overwhelming.
