How I Can Support You

Recovering From an Emotionally Abusive Relationship
Recovering from an emotionally abusive relationship takes time, patience, and support. Together, we’ll work to rebuild your sense of safety, strengthen your boundaries, and gently untangle the patterns that keep you feeling small or stuck. You deserve to feel grounded, respected, and at home in yourself again—and you don’t have to walk that healing path alone.
Life can change in an instant. Whether you're trying to heal from an emotionally abusive relationship, navigating a difficult separation, or carrying the overwhelming responsibilities of parenting a child with autism or special needs, you don't have to face it alone. At Rising Phoenix Counselling, I provide compassionate, trauma-informed virtual counselling for women who are ready to rebuild their confidence, rediscover their identity, and move forward with strength and hope. Together, we'll create a safe space where you feel heard, understood, and supported without judgment.

Separation, High-Conflict Relationships & Life Transitions
Support through separation, high-conflict relationships, major life changes, and the emotional load of parenting or caregiving. Together, we’ll slow things down, make sense of what you’re going through, and help you find steadier ground so you can move forward with more clarity, confidence, and self-compassion.

Parents & Caregivers of Autistic/Special Needs Children
Caring for an autistic or special needs child can be deeply rewarding—and incredibly exhausting. Between appointments, school meetings, sensory needs, meltdowns, and constant advocacy, it can feel like there’s never a moment to breathe. You may feel guilty for feeling overwhelmed, stretched thin trying to support everyone, and unsure where your own needs fit in. You deserve a space to process the stress, grief, and worry you carry, and to feel supported as you care for the child you love.

Guided by Compassion, Focused on Your Well-being
Hi, I'm Amber. I'm a Registered Professional Counsellor-Candidate (RPC-C) working under supervision. I believe healing begins when you finally feel understood. As a Registered Professional Counsellor – Candidate (RPC-C), I combine professional training with genuine compassion and real-life understanding of many of the challenges my clients face. My approach is warm, collaborative, and practical, helping you move beyond simply surviving toward building a life that feels peaceful, meaningful, and authentic. Many of the women I work with have spent years putting everyone else first. They feel emotionally exhausted, constantly questioning themselves, struggling with anxiety, guilt, or the lasting effects of unhealthy relationships. Others are navigating the complex realities of co-parenting after separation, rebuilding their confidence after emotional abuse, or adjusting to major life transitions that have left them feeling overwhelmed. I also have a special passion for supporting parents and caregivers of autistic and special needs children. Parenting a child with unique needs can be incredibly rewarding, but it can also feel isolating, emotionally draining, and overwhelming. You deserve support too. Therapy offers a place where your needs matter just as much as everyone else's. My counselling approach integrates Person-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, and trauma-informed care. Every session is tailored to your unique experiences, strengths, and goals because there is no one-size-fits-all path to healing. Whether you're learning to establish healthy boundaries, processing trauma, rebuilding after heartbreak, managing anxiety, or simply trying to find yourself again, we'll work together at a pace that feels safe and supportive.
What to Expect in Therapy
Therapy should never feel intimidating. My goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable enough to be yourself—without fear of judgment or pressure to have everything figured out. Clients often describe me as compassionate, approachable, and easy to talk to. I believe meaningful change happens through trust, genuine connection, and practical strategies you can begin using in everyday life. Together, we'll celebrate your strengths, work through the challenges keeping you stuck, and help you develop the confidence and resilience to move toward the life you deserve. Healing isn't about becoming someone new—it's about rediscovering the person you've always been beneath the pain.
