About Amber
Amber Trinkle is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in New York with 10 years of experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, depression, ADHD, addictions, relationship and family concerns, grief, sleep problems, parenting strain, self-esteem issues, life changes, and social anxiety and phobia.
Her approach starts with listening to what a person notices is hard. She uses client-centered conversation to clarify goals and what feels most pressing. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, motivational interviewing, and mindfulness tools are common parts of sessions when they match a person’s needs.
Amber has worked in several different settings over her career. That range has included work with people experiencing trauma, depression, anxiety, and those connected to the criminal justice system. Her background gives practical experience with communication problems, attachment issues, and adoption or foster care questions.
In sessions she aims to make clear, doable steps that people can try between meetings. Techniques can include examining thoughts that increase anxiety, building small behavioral experiments, and practicing emotion regulation skills drawn from DBT and mindfulness.
She encourages a collaborative process where a person’s priorities guide the work. People who reach out usually start by identifying a small goal and then testing whether a different way of responding helps. Over time that helps people notice whether their reactions shift and what still needs attention.
How her approaches fit into online work
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in relationships and how early bonds shape expectations. In practice this means talking about past and current connections to notice repeated patterns and to try different responses when relationships feel strained.Client-Centered Therapy centers the person’s experience and priorities. The therapist follows what the client says matters most, helping them name goals and choose steps that feel manageable.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact. Online CBT sessions commonly include practical exercises, thought records, and short behavioral experiments to try between meetings.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Amber will help figure out which methods match a person’s needs, goals, and preferences, and she will adjust the plan as progress is noticed.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also supports using worksheets, guided practices, and in-session coaching that carry into everyday life.
