Amber obtained her Masters of Science in Mental Health Counseling from the renowned Capella University, reflecting her deep passion and commitment to mental health. Building upon this foundation, she is actively pursuing advanced training with AEDP (Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy) to ensure she offers the latest therapeutic techniques to her clients. Recognizing the unique challenges of loss, Amber further honed her skills to become a Certified Grief Counseling Professional. Amber is a proudly Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor #13283, and her academic and professional journey epitomizes a dedicated drive to provide compassionate and expert care.
Amber, the driving force behind “Healing With Amber,” is a licensed and experienced mental health professional in California. She specializes in Grief Counseling with integrating spirituality with Black, Indigenous, People of Color (BIPOC) millennial women. Her qualifications and skills have equipped her with an in-depth understanding of the human psyche and the complexities of emotional health.
Having personally navigated life’s inevitable twists and turns, Amber identified a profound need for using spirituality in her work with others because sometimes traditional therapy isn’t enough. This led to the creation of her virtual counseling practice. She believes in a holistic approach that aims not only at symptom management, but at identifying and addressing root causes of distress.

When I finally committed to my own healing, I realized that therapy could be more than just talking, it could be a transformative process that works with the mind, heart, body, and spirit. That’s when I began blending my training as a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor with my background in grief work and evidential mediumship. I do not bring mediumship in the session; however, I do recognize mediumship as another modality of healing and do honor it within grief work.
Now, I specialize in guiding individuals through grief with integrated spirituality. My style is person-centered, spirit-led, and experiential, meaning that I meet you exactly where you are, while gently guiding you into deeper self-awareness which creates lasting change. We work to uncover root causes, process unresolved emotions, and create practical tools you can use in everyday life.
Why grief therapy with me is different: Most therapy models focus only on the mind. My approach acknowledges that grief lives in the body, the heart, and spirit. I help you recognize how grief shows up physically in the body and guide you through somatic and spiritual practices to release it. I also draw from my spiritual training to hold space for the deeper questions loss brings, offering both evidence-based clinical care and the soul-level compassion that grief requires. This integration allows for healing that feels transformational.
Over the years, I’ve helped countless individuals move from feeling stuck and emotionally burdened to feeling grounded, confident, and connected to their authentic selves. It’s my greatest honor to witness someone reclaim their inner light after loss, heartbreak, or self-doubt.
If you’re ready to heal what’s been weighing you down and step fully into who you’re meant to be, I’d be honored to walk that journey with you.
