About Amber

Amber Carreau Davidson is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia with ten years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, career challenges, compassion fatigue, bipolar disorder, and major life changes. Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are accepted.

Her approach mixes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Trauma-Focused Therapy to address immediate problems and longer-standing patterns. She prefers an active, collaborative style where both therapist and client shape the plan. Humor may be used when it fits the moment.

Amber has supported people after psychiatric hospitalization and those facing domestic violence, sexual abuse, panic attacks, and PTSD. She also helps with concerns such as obsessive-compulsive patterns, dissociation, paranoia, phobias, fertility and pregnancy-related issues, and financial stress.

Her training includes a Master of Arts in Mental Health Counseling and Family and Marriage Counseling from Barry University. She maintains licensure as FL LMHC and GA LPC and continues professional reading and training to stay current with practice standards.

Practical work in sessions focuses on clear, teachable skills from CBT, short-term goal setting from solution-focused work, and trauma-informed interventions when needed. People who want concrete strategies for managing anger, reducing panic, or handling workplace stress often find this direct, action-oriented approach useful.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical behavioral experiments. It is useful for anger linked to quick thoughts, panic attacks, and anxiety by giving concrete skills to change what you do and think.

Solution-Focused Therapy centers on setting small, achievable goals and building on what already works. It is often used when someone wants quicker, practical steps for workplace stress, communication problems, or coping with life changes.

Trauma-Focused Therapy targets the effects of traumatic events and helps reduce triggers and flashbacks through paced, trauma-informed techniques. This approach is applied when trauma or abuse contributes to anger, panic, or dissociation.

Choosing the right approach is part of the early work. The therapist collaborates with each person to decide which methods match their goals, needs, and preferences. That may mean trying CBT skills for a few sessions, then adding solution-focused steps, or focusing on trauma work when safety and stabilization are needed.

Session logistics should fit into daily life. The therapist's profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm available online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments around work, reduce commuting time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people join from locations with quieter surroundings or lower bandwidth requirements.
