About

About Amber

Amber Hillman is a counsellor registered with NCPS and has six years of clinical experience practicing in the United Kingdom. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, career concerns, ADHD, addictions, grief, intimacy issues, parenting pressures and anger. Sessions are conducted in English and she accepts international clients.

Amber uses a range of approaches to help people manage strong feelings and difficult memories. She frequently uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, a therapy that aims to change how past events are stored in the brain so they feel less overwhelming. She also draws on cognitive behavioural techniques to identify unhelpful thinking and on client-centred conversation to clarify what matters most to each person.

Her style is straightforward and practical. Conversations focus on what is happening now, how past events affect current reactions, and on small, manageable steps people can try between sessions. Amber pays attention to patterns in relationships and communication, and she supports people who are trying to reduce anger, irritation or repeated conflict.

She offers mindfulness exercises and short solution-focused work to help with stress, sleep disruption and day-to-day coping. For issues linked to abandonment, attachment, body image, chronic illness, codependency or financial stress, Amber helps people map out realistic next steps rather than making sweeping promises.

Sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, with cost varying by location. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial appointment via the site.

How sessions work

How Amber uses therapeutic approaches online

Amber often blends Client-Centred Therapy and EMDR in her work. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on open conversation and listening so the person can clarify goals and priorities. It helps with ongoing stress, relationship confusion and decision points. EMDR aims to change how difficult memories feel by using guided sensory procedures, which can reduce the intensity of trauma-linked reactions.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Amber will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and preferences. That decision is based on the issues they bring, their goals for sessions and what feels manageable in weekly work.

The profile does not name specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also allows practical exercises, breathing and mindfulness practices to be tried between meetings, so people can test what helps in everyday life.
