About Amber

Amber Greuel is a licensed professional counselor who focuses on helping families and parents find clearer paths forward. She speaks plainly and listens closely to understand what is most pressing for each person. Conversations with her center on practical steps parents can take at home and ways to improve relationships while managing everyday stress.

Her style is warm and respectful. She aims to create a space where people feel seen and able to make choices that fit their lives.

Background and approach

Amber draws on 17 years of experience as an LPC to guide sessions with steady, straightforward support. In therapy she uses approaches that look at how relationships shape feelings and behavior. She helps with worry, low mood, grief, addictions, and challenges around intimacy and communication.

Parents often work on boundaries, routines, and handling conflict with less escalation. Amber also brings tools from cognitive behavioral methods and emotion-focused work to change unhelpful patterns. These tools translate into concrete skills for managing anxiety, anger, and sleep or eating concerns.

She tailors strategies to each family's needs rather than offering one fixed plan. Her practice includes attention to identity and relational differences, including LGBT and kink-affirming care when relevant. She supports people through life transitions, career stress, caregiver strain, and blended-family adjustments.

Amber aims to help people feel more capable and less overwhelmed as they move forward.

Therapeutic approaches to use online and in sessions

Amber uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how past and present relationships shape feelings and reactions. This approach helps when trust, closeness, or recurring conflicts cause pain. Client-Centered Therapy is another part of her work, which focuses on listening without judgment and supporting each person's own goals and choices. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, provides practical steps to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors that feed anxiety or low mood.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Amber will talk with each person or family about goals and try methods that fit their preferences. Together they decide what to keep, adapt, or change as therapy progresses so the work matches real-life needs.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect using video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy family schedules, handle urgent check-ins between meetings, and keep continuity during life transitions. Amber uses these formats to teach skills, coach through parenting moments, and support relationship work without requiring in-person visits.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
