About Amber
Amber Hillman is a counsellor registered with NCPS and has six years of clinical experience in the United Kingdom. She supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, career worries, ADHD, addictions, LGBT concerns, grief, and other life changes. Amber works with adults who are navigating the pressures of early adulthood and beyond.
Her approach is practical and person-focused. She uses client-centred methods to listen and reflect what matters to each person. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thinking and try small experiments to change daily routines.
Amber also offers trauma-focused work, including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), for people who carry strong emotional responses from past events. Mindfulness techniques and solution-focused conversations are part of her toolkit for managing stress and setting achievable goals.
Sessions tend to be straightforward: people talk about the issues that bring them in, set short-term goals, and review progress. Amber aims to help clients build coping skills for anxiety, work transitions, relationship problems, low self-esteem, and similar concerns. She also addresses complex themes such as attachment or abandonment, chronic illness, and financial stress.
Her practice accepts people from different countries and runs within UK professional standards. Fees vary with location and use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How Amber uses therapeutic approaches online
Client-centred work focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the person. Online sessions using this approach allow the counsellor to follow the client’s lead, clarify concerns, and help set short, practical goals for day-to-day life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. Delivered remotely, CBT can include simple exercises and experiments to try between sessions, aimed at reducing anxiety, improving mood, and breaking unhelpful patterns. EMDR is a trauma-focused method that aims to change strong emotional responses tied to past events. In an online setting this involves guided protocols and pacing agreed with the client, with attention to how exercises fit into the person’s current life and energy levels. Finding the best approach is part of the work. The therapist will help the client choose or combine methods based on the person’s needs, goals and preferences. Decisions are made together and can be reviewed as progress is tracked. Confirm the exact session options before booking, as the biography does not list formats. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around study, shifts and travel. It also allows shorter check-ins or longer sessions when needed, and helps people keep therapy going if they move or live abroad.Areas of expertise
