Amber Johnson

My communication style

My communication style is open, gentle, and direct. I utilize active listening and often ask questions from a place of curiosity to foster deeper reflection. I always ask for permission to share feedback and observations. You can expect me to be approachable and warm in our interactions.

My journey to mental healthcare

My desire to become a therapist ignited with my first psychology class. I became excited about connecting with others, providing them a safe space to share their feelings, and helping them achieve their goals. I learned how pivotal awareness of one's triggers and learning healthy ways to respond can provide healing and growth.

My goals for you

We will explore what progress looks like for you and set goals tailored to your needs, whether focused on relationships, communication, or other personal objectives. As we work together, your goals may evolve as you gain new insights. I'm here to provide the support and tools you need.

Our first session

In our first session, we'll get to know one another and discuss your background and what brings you to therapy. You can ask me questions about my counseling style. If you feel nervous, that is normal. I will make you feel comfortable and welcome, and most clients find their nerves dissipate within a session or two.
