About Amber
Amber Wilder is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) with 13 years of experience. She greets clients with a calm, easygoing presence and aims to make the first steps feel simple and manageable. Her approach is nonjudgmental and focused on helping people move toward clearer goals and steadier days.
Amber earned a master's degree from Fort Hays State University and holds LCPC licensure in Nevada and Kansas. She blends practical therapies such as cognitive behavioral therapy with person-centered listening and skills-based methods like dialectical behavior therapy.
Background and approach
She also uses trauma-focused work, including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, when it fits a person's needs. Sessions are shaped around each person rather than a fixed formula. Amber helps clients identify strengths, set realistic goals, and practice small changes that add up.
She often combines straightforward skills training with reflective conversations to build better coping and clearer choices. Her clinical focus includes stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting challenges, anger, career shifts, bipolar disorder, and coping with life changes. Additional areas she supports include attachment issues, caregiver stress, codependency, and family of origin concerns.
Amber balances work in independent practice with other professional commitments and typically checks messages twice a day. She offers video appointments and live chat options during the week, and helps people find a pace of work that fits their schedule.

Approaches that translate well to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and move toward values-based choices. It is practical for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches concrete tools to change unhelpful patterns; it is useful for depression, anxiety, and coping skills. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improved communication, which can help with impulsive behavior and intense emotions.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they tailor methods and decide whether to emphasize skills practice, trauma work, or reflective conversation.
Online therapy with Amber is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful for longer sessions and face-to-face interaction, phone can fit a shorter check-in or low bandwidth situations, and chat or text work well for quick updates and ongoing support between appointments. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep consistent momentum toward goals.
