About Amber

Amber Hillman is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people manage anger and related concerns. She works with issues such as stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, career challenges, ADHD, addictions, grief and self-esteem. Amber aims to make sessions straightforward and practical so people can try things that help between meetings.

Her approach is warm and person-focused. She draws on Client-Centred ideas to listen closely to what matters most to each person. Amber also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot unhelpful thoughts and try small behavioural changes in daily life.

For people affected by distressing memories, Amber offers Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing, a trauma-focused method intended to change how memories feel and reduce their intensity. She combines this with mindfulness skills and solution-focused techniques to build coping tools and quick, practical steps forward.

Amber holds NCPS as a professional credential and has worked for six years in therapeutic roles. She offers sessions in English and accepts international clients. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

To begin, a person uses the Start Therapy button, completes a short matching questionnaire, and schedules according to therapist availability. Amber aims to work collaboratively to set clear goals and adapt her style to each person’s needs.

Approaches that translate to online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person’s experience. The counsellor follows what matters most to the individual and helps them find their own solutions, which suits work on anger, relationships and self-esteem.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It breaks problems into small pieces and tests simple changes in everyday life to reduce anxiety, stress and unhelpful anger responses.

Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing is used for distressing memories and trauma. It aims to change how upsetting memories feel, and can be paired with grounding and coping skills to manage reactions in daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs and help decide which methods to try first. This is a collaborative process and the plan can change as progress is reviewed.

Session formats are not listed in the supplied biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Many people choose online sessions because they fit more easily around work, caregiving and travel. Online meetings can reduce travel time, make short check-ins possible and allow use of mindfulness or homework between sessions to build new habits.
