Amber Russell, MSW

Psychotherapist
NH
Hi there, I'm Amber! I am an individual therapist with two decade of experience supporting adolescents, adults, and parents navigating challenging behaviors. I specialize in helping clients cope with symptoms related to Anxiety, PTSD, Autism, OCD, Depression, ADHD, and relationship issues. My focus I am passionate about supporting women—from middle school to menopause (ages 10–80+)—through life’s most meaningful (and enlightening) transitions. I help women develop healthy relationships with themselves and others in order to create a more authentic, confident, and balanced future, surrounded by a supportive community. My approach I use a client-centered, solution-focused approach, focusing on present challenges and drawing on the past only when it meaningfully informs what is happening today. I view life as a journey where challenges and conflict can become opportunities for growth. My communication style My style is warm, empathic, and grounded, with a touch of humor. I try not to take myself so seriously and find that life provides ample opportunities for humility development. My journey to mental healthcare I grew up as the youngest child of a Vietnam Veteran father (PTSD) and a mother with Major Depressive Disorder. Throughout my childhood my mother was hospitalized many times. I remember feeling there was no hope for her. She committed suicide when I was 20. When I became a therapist I promised to always leave my clients and families with hope. My goals for you At the end of every session of practicing different skills/strategies that are relevant to a client's goals, I always ask clients "what strategy would you like to work on before our next session?" When we meet again, I check in if they were able to follow through with that strategy and if we need to modify it in order to achieve success.
