About Amber
Amber Wilder is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor with 13 years of experience. She welcomes people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or ready to make changes. Amber presents as calm and down-to-earth and aims to make talking about hard things feel accessible.
She keeps conversation straightforward and practical. Sessions often focus on identifying strengths, setting small goals, and finding tools that fit everyday life. Amber tailors each plan to the person rather than using one fixed method.
Background and approach
Her background includes a master’s degree from Fort Hays State University and licensure as an LCPC in Nevada and Kansas. Over her career she has worked with concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addictions, relationship challenges, self-esteem, bipolar disorder, and parenting-related pressures.
Amber draws on several approaches to shape sessions, including cognitive behavioral strategies, dialectical behavior techniques, acceptance and commitment ideas, attachment-focused work, and client-centered methods. She also brings experience with trauma-focused care and related therapies when they fit a client’s goals. In practice she balances education and hands-on skills.
Conversations may include emotional support, practical problem-solving, and exercises to practice between sessions. She aims to help people build habits that reduce overwhelm and improve daily functioning. Amber provides video appointments, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging.

Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions support them
Amber often uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and build new habits. CBT provides structured exercises and straightforward homework that translate well to video or text-based formats. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is another approach she uses to help people clarify values and take small steps toward them, focusing on actions rather than perfect feelings. Attachment-Based Therapy is used to look at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and communication, which can be explored in conversation and role practice online.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has worked in the past, then suggest ways to combine methods. Clients and the therapist check in regularly and adapt the plan as needed so the work stays practical and relevant.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for in-depth conversation and exercises that benefit from seeing each other. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and messaging give flexibility for quick reflections or between-session support without needing to schedule a full video visit. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy family or work life.
