About Amber

Amber Hillman helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and relationship problems. She also supports those dealing with career shifts, addiction concerns, ADHD and grief. Amber works with issues like intimacy, parenting strain, anger and low self-esteem. She speaks English and practices from the United Kingdom and accepts international clients.

Amber keeps sessions straightforward and individual-focused. She aims to make it easier to talk about painful memories and hard choices. Sessions are calm and practical, with space to name feelings and try new ways of coping.

Her approach draws on several methods to suit what each person needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps spot unhelpful thinking and try out different behaviours. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing is included for people who want focused work on traumatic memories. Client-Centred and Solution-Focused techniques are used to build on strengths and set clear goals.

With six years of experience Amber holds an NCPS credential. That qualification is noted in her professional details as NCPS. She works by listening first, then offering suggestions and methods that fit the person she is talking with.

Sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. People can meet by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging. Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and then scheduling at a suitable time.

How Amber’s approaches translate to online therapy

Amber uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviours, which can be worked on in short practical exercises during sessions. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing is offered for focused work on traumatic memories and involves guided protocols that can be adapted to remote formats. Client-Centred therapy places the person’s experience at the heart of the work, with the counsellor holding a listening, non-judgemental stance to help people feel heard.

Deciding which approach to use is a shared process. Amber will talk through options and agree a plan based on the person’s goals, needs and preferences. That collaborative decision can change over time as different methods are tried and evaluated together.

Online sessions are available by video calls, phone, live chat or text messaging to increase flexibility. Video is useful for a fuller conversational exchange, phone works well for lower bandwidth or a quieter check-in, and chat or text can suit shorter updates or days when writing feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, caring duties or travel while still following a clear therapeutic plan.
