Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Amber Preston draws from trauma-focused therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and mindfulness-based techniques when working with clients. Trauma-focused therapy centers on processing traumatic memories and their effects so clients can reduce symptoms and rebuild a sense of safety and control. CBT helps people identify and reframe unhelpful thoughts and develop practical skills for managing mood, anxiety, and behavior. Mindfulness therapy teaches present-moment awareness and grounding strategies that can reduce reactivity and improve emotional regulation.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Amber collaborates with each person to determine which combination of methods fits their needs, goals, and preferences. She adjusts strategies over time and invites client feedback to shape an individualized plan.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, access care from home, and maintain continuity of support when life is unpredictable. Amber integrates her clinical approaches into these remote formats to provide accessible, goal-oriented care with licensed professionals guiding the process.
