I've only had a couple sessions with Amber Williams but each time I have walked away feeling better about the week ahead of me, or how to tackle a new problem. I think Amber takes her time to get to know the client, which I love. I never feel rushed, she listens and helps me come up with solutions and even provides tools after the sessions that I can use in my daily life. 10/10.
More about Amber
- 15 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
Hello! My name is Amber and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with experience working in several therapeutic settings to include outpatient clinical services, skilled living facilities, community mental health, and nonprofit healthcare services. I have also served clientele within the social services, law enforcement, and military communities ranging from foster care and adoption, criminal offenders and active duty members.
I received my undergraduate degree in Social Work at the University of Tennessee at Martin and my Masters degree in Social Work at Western Kentucky University. I am dual-licensed in Florida and Tennessee specializing in family conflict, relationship issues, domestic violence, anger management, depression, stress and anxiety.
I would best describe my approach as open and client centered. I encourage each client to play an active part in their treatment, through use of motivational interviewing, to encourage insight and self-empowerment. I also value the use of supports whether they be family, friends, professionals or helpful coping skills. Throughout my lifetime and professional career, I’ve found that mental health is always at the forefront of personal success. I’m happy to be a part of a profession that makes it okay to prioritize YOU first!

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.
- Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
- Available now.
- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

I 100% recommend Amber! She is very understanding. She is the first therapist I’ve had that I felt understood and had a connection with
This is the first time I've stuck with therapy for longer than a few weeks and Amber has everything to do with it. She's an excellent listener, and gives advice that feels like it's coming from an experienced friend. She also pushes me just enough so that I make noticable progress in key areas, which gives me the positive feedback I need to keep chipping away at improving my mental health.
Amber is a great listener and makes me feel comfortable. I look forward to her observations and suggestions during meetings.
She’s amazing. Very attentive. Always listens and challenges me to grow outside of my comfort zone.
She is so nice, professional, and understanding. She keeps you on track to meet your goals!
Amber consistently eases my anxiety, she eloquently provides advice but also sets constructive challenge. I highly recommend her services.
Amber is the best. She holds you accountable while also teaching you to practice grace.
Amber is literally an Angel! Her open and non-judgmental approach allows me to be myself. She also points out facts that honestly I should know but at the same time she doesn't make me feel dumb. I am so happy I found her :)!
Amber is the best!
Amber is very approachable, kind and understanding. She listens and responds in a way that is respectful and useful. She is easy to chat with and I feel very comfortable opening up to her. Glad to have found her.
Very compassionate and a good listener; also gave me good, short "homework" before our next sessions which made me feel like we were working on my concerns
You are amazing and I am so happy I found you. You really take time to listen/read about what is going on with me and offer advice but also plenty of opportunities to self reflect. (Ps. My phone glitched when I started the form and it clicked that you dont respond in a timely manner and that is not TRUE. That is literally one of the many things I love about you!
Amber has always listened to me in a genuine way. She's very good at what she does.
Amber and I have had one session and she was an incredible listener, asked all the right questions, and really made me feel comfortable. All equally important to me and I’m grateful. Thank you Amber! Looking forward to our next session!
Ms Amber is extremely helpful and attentive. She carefully listens and provides me support as well as great advice so that I can overcome my problems in the future. She clearly showed expertise during all of our sessions. Im so glad to have had Ms Amber as my first counselor, she’s the best. Huge thanks!
