Amber McLeod, BS

about my Approach:

Cultivating a safe and affirming space for individuals of all backgrounds and identities is of utmost importance to me, and I tailor my approach to meet the unique needs of each individual client. I am dedicated to creating a warm, non-judgmental, and supportive environment where you can feel heard, understood, and empowered to embark on your journey towards healing and growth.In my therapy approach, I draw from a diverse toolkit of person-centered therapeutic modalities, including psychodynamic techniques, Trauma-Informed Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), feminist theories, and Multicultural Orientation (MCO). My areas of focus include navigating depression, anxiety, ADHD, trauma, autism spectrum disorder (ASD), women’s mental health, and providing LGBTQ+ affirming therapy. As I work towards obtaining my degree and licensure, I bring a wealth of enthusiasm and commitment to supporting individuals through their journey of self-discovery and healing. I firmly believe in the power of collaboration, humor, empowerment, and empathy. I see therapy as a partnership where we work together to explore challenges, foster growth, and create positive and empowering change.
