About Amber Hillman
Amber Hillman is a UK-licensed EMDR therapist with six years of professional experience supporting people through trauma, anxiety, panic, depression, relationship difficulties, and significant work or life changes. She holds the NCPS credential, a professional psychotherapy qualification that reflects her training and commitment to professional standards.
Amber specialises in EMDR, a therapeutic approach that helps the brain reprocess distressing memories so they lose their vivid, overwhelming quality and no longer drive present-day reactions. In practice she blends EMDR with other evidence-informed methods to address the practical and emotional impacts of past events as well as ongoing stressors such as career pressures, addiction, neurodiverse needs like ADHD, and relationship or family concerns.
Her style is collaborative and client-centered, focused on creating an open environment where thoughts and feelings can be explored without judgment. Amber works with issues across the life span including grief, intimacy and parenting challenges, codependency, and questions of identity and purpose. She also offers therapeutic support for those navigating chronic illness, financial stress, or major life transitions, helping individuals move toward clearer coping strategies and more balanced day-to-day functioning.
Accessible to English-speaking and international clients, Amber combines clinical experience with empathic listening to guide people toward meaningful change at a pace that suits them.

Therapeutic approaches and online support
Amber integrates EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and client-centered methods to tailor online care to each individual's needs. EMDR helps the brain reprocess traumatic memories so they become less intrusive and distressing, and is often used for trauma, abuse, and intense stress reactions. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and patterns and developing practical skills to manage anxiety, mood, and behaviour in everyday life. Client-centered therapy emphasises a supportive, non-judgmental relationship that allows a person to explore feelings and goals at their own pace and is especially helpful when building trust and self-understanding.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Amber works collaboratively with clients to identify the methods that best fit their needs, goals, and personal preferences, adjusting the plan as progress is made and circumstances change.
Online sessions - by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - offer flexibility for those balancing work, family, or other commitments and make it easier to access licensed professionals from different locations. These options allow Amber to provide continuity of care and timely support while adapting session formats to what works best for each person.
