Getting to know Amber Gurman
Feeling alone or powerless? Struggling with the unexpected? Life is often unpredictable with its peaks and valleys-it's human to feel lost or overwhelmed at times. Having a guiding hand to help make sense of it all can give us the tools and direction we need to not only survive but thrive. My name is Amber, and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor dedicated to helping you find meaning, empowerment, and stability along your path.
I hold an MSEd in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from St. Bonaventure University. Having been in the field for over 3 years, I have walked alongside clients through a variety of life experiences including stress, anxiety, questions of existence, trauma, and sexual issues of concern. Harnessing the power of perspective and its impact on our feelings and behavior is a cornerstone of my practice.
One size never fits all. You are the expert in your own life, and I believe in a person-centered approach as the foundation of our partnership. In our work together, you will be in the driver's seat, with things moving at the pace you're most comfortable. Reach out today and let's get started on your path to healing, together.
What should a new client know about working with you?
My primary approaches are CBT and SFBT. Channeling the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, we will work together to foster change using the inherent strengths you possess. I am also trained in and am gaining experience towards my certification in Progressive Counting to enhance my trauma-informed practice.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
I work with clients who may be struggling with anxiety, stress, trauma, and sexual issues. For our first sessions, we will talk through your life experiences to get a better picture of how everything connects to your presenting problems. We will identify some core coping skills to prepare for delving deeper into processing your issues, ensuring you feel prepared for the work we do together.
