Amber Osijo, LMFT — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Amber!

I help adults, teens, children, and seniors navigate depression, anxiety, mood disorders, crisis situations, self-esteem challenges, relationship concerns, and grief. My goal is to create a supportive space where you can work toward meaningful change and a more fulfilling life.

My focus

I work with adults, teens, children, and seniors facing depression, anxiety, mood disorders, crisis situations, self-esteem issues, relationship challenges, pre-marital concerns, and grief.

My approach

I work collaboratively with you to achieve your goals using CBT, DBT, trauma-focused therapy, and the Gottman Method. Together, we'll identify practical strategies to address your concerns and build the skills you need to move forward with confidence.

My communication style

My sessions are warm, inviting, supportive, and collaborative. I listen carefully to your concerns and help you identify practical ways to address and overcome them. You can expect an educational approach that empowers you with tools for lasting change.

My journey to mental healthcare

I've always loved helping others and believed that change is possible. Helping people reach their goals and achieve fulfilling lives is deeply rewarding to me. My faith has shaped my commitment to seeing the good in others and making a positive impact in my community.

My goals for you

In our first two sessions, we'll discuss why you're seeking therapy now and how current difficulties impact your life. From there, we'll work together to identify the goals and improvements you'd like to achieve.

Our first session

We'll discuss your current challenges, the history of these issues, and your family background. I'll provide feedback on treatment options like individual therapy, couples therapy, or community support. All suggestions are just that—we'll start with whatever feels right for you.
