About Amber
Amber Hillman is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, parenting worries and major life changes. She works with concerns such as grief, intimacy problems, anger, low self-esteem, ADHD and addictions. Amber uses clear, practical methods so people can feel understood and take concrete steps forward.
Amber creates a calm space where clients can talk without judgement. She explains what to expect and tailors sessions to each person’s needs.
Background and approach
Conversations focus on small, manageable goals and real-life tools that fit day-to-day routines. Her way of working draws on several approaches. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thinking and behaviour and helps people try out new ways of responding.
Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing, or EMDR, is used to reduce the intensity of painful memories and how they affect life now. Client-centred and solution-focused methods keep the work practical and grounded in what the client wants to achieve. Amber has six years of experience and holds the NCPS credential.
She offers sessions from the United Kingdom and speaks English. She supports people dealing with a wide range of issues, including attachment and abandonment, body image, chronic illness, codependency and life-purpose concerns. People start by completing a short matching questionnaire.
From there they schedule sessions that suit their situation. Amber aims to help people build steady progress rather than quick fixes, with tools they can use outside sessions.

Therapeutic approaches to use online
Amber offers approaches that translate well to online work. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and test small changes in behaviour. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and stress because it focuses on practical experiments and day-to-day strategies.EMDR, Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing, helps reduce the emotional intensity of upsetting memories. In online sessions Amber guides gentle processing of those memories while using specific bilateral stimulation methods adapted for remote work. Client-centred therapy keeps sessions focused on the person's perspective, with the therapist following the client's pace and priorities.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Amber will talk through options, listen to what matters most to the client, and adapt the plan as work progresses so it fits goals and comfort levels.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video sessions suit deeper conversations with visual cues, phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or live chat can fit short check-ins or quick support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare and travel commitments while keeping the focus on steady progress.
