My name is Amber, and I enjoy coming alongside individuals and couples who desire healing and growth- whether that means strengthening their relationship, working through challenges together, or coping with life transitions. I have a strong interest in supporting those to navigate difficult seasons due to: infertility, pregnancy loss, the birth of multiples, and parenting children with disabilities.

In a world that often emphasizes individuality, I believe God designed us to live our fullest life when in connection with others. Healthy relationships exist when each person is pursuing their own mental and emotional well-being. I value listening to people’s life stories and helping identify patterns that influence their experiences and choices. My counseling approach is collaborative, honest, and grounded, with a dash of humor.

I enjoy spending time with my husband and our children. We love being outdoors, camping, playing board games, baking, and doing crafts together.

I am finishing a Master of Arts in Counseling with an emphasis in Marriage, Couple, and Family Counseling at Adler Graduate School. I earned my Bachelor of Science in Criminal Justice from the University of Northwestern- St. Paul in 2010.

Amber is an intern student at NWFC and is currently finishing her master’s program at Alder Graduate School. She is supervised by Dan Schmoyer, MA, LPCC.
