About Amber Ensign

Amber Ensign is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 12 years of clinical experience who focuses on practical, trauma-informed care. Over the most recent three years she has concentrated her practice on children, adolescents, and their families while also working with adults facing substance abuse, trauma, depression, anxiety, and everyday life challenges. She is trained in evidence-based, trauma-informed treatments including Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) - for which she is a certified provider - and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), alongside traditional talk therapy.

Amber tailors her approach to meet each person's needs, often blending multiple methods and theoretical perspectives to address presenting concerns. She aims to offer clear, thoughtful guidance and will be transparent if she believes a different provider would be a better fit. Individuals seeking an outside perspective, a specific therapeutic method, or faith-based Biblical counseling may find her style aligns with their goals.
