Getting to know Amber Carney

Hi there, I'm Amber! My name is Amber Carney, and I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Nashville, Tennessee, working with clients statewide via telehealth. I hold a Master’s in Social Work from Austin Peay State University. I work with adults and specialize in relationship issues, anxiety, and self-worth, using a Compassion Focused, Person-Centered approach. My approach My approach to therapy varies based on the needs of each client. Recognizing the impact our relationships have on our internal experiences, I approach therapy with a deep understanding that our past shapes our present. I am a trauma-informed therapist and tend to be oriented from an Attachment-Based lens. I most frequently use Person-Centered and Compassion Focused approaches, as both modalities allow me and the client to build a shared understanding of where they are in their life and where they want to go. My focus I have found my style and approach is a good fit for folks going through transitions in their relationships (with self and others). Our connections with others are deeply meaningful, yet they can also be a major source of conflict, pain, and confusion. This often leads to inner questioning and can create obstacles in our relationships, such as avoidance, communication problems, boundary issues, people-pleasing tendencies, anxiety, shame, grief—among other challenges. Creating a safe space to process these emotions and experiences is important and offers opportunity for a more balanced life. My communication style My communication style is calm, understanding, and compassionate. I want my clients to feel safe and supported while talking about things that are really challenging and important to them. My goals for you I believe in a collaborative approach to goal setting with my clients. We’ll start by defining what you want to achieve during our time together, focusing on building trust and helping you feel at ease in the therapeutic process.
