About Amber
Amber Hillman is a counsellor registered with NCPS and has six years of clinical experience in the United Kingdom. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, career strain, ADHD, addictions, LGBT issues, grief, parenting challenges, anger, self-esteem problems and life transitions. Sessions address practical problems and overwhelming feelings rather than labels.
Amber uses several well-known approaches to help people make sense of what they are feeling. She practises client-centred work, cognitive behavioural techniques and EMDR for trauma. She also brings mindfulness and solution-focused strategies into sessions when these fit a person’s aims.
Her style is straightforward and task-focused. Conversations identify what’s troubling someone now and which steps might reduce tension or repeated outbursts. She encourages simple tools to manage strong feeling and clearer ways to communicate with others.
When trauma is involved Amber explains how distressing memories can be stored and how certain interventions aim to change how those memories affect day-to-day responses. EMDR is described as an approach that works with those memory imprints to reduce their intensity.
Sessions typically combine talking, practical exercises and skill practice between meetings. Amber accepts international clients and runs work in English. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, clients are asked to use the See online therapy options button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session.
How her approaches work in online sessions
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what someone says. It helps people feel understood and shapes sessions around their immediate concerns, such as anger or relationship tension.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It teaches practical exercises to test unhelpful thoughts and to try different responses in situations that usually trigger anger.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) works with how traumatic memories are held. In sessions Amber explains how certain interventions aim to reduce the intensity of those memories and the reactions they cause.
Finding the best approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss needs, goals and preferences and agree a plan together. That collaborative step helps decide whether to prioritise skills practice, trauma-focused work or short-term solution work.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Registered or accredited professionals often tailor pacing and homework to how therapy fits into everyday life.
