INTRO
Welcome - I’m glad you’re here! Starting therapy can feel overwhelming and I’m here to help you feel most comfortable taking this next step in your life. My name is Amber Brown, and I am a mental health counselor, art therapist and owner of Creative Roots Counseling.
PHILOSOPHY
My practice is founded on providing a warm, collaborative, and purposeful environment that embodies empathy, understanding, and acceptance. I appreciate the diverse backgrounds and experiences of my clients, customizing counseling sessions to meet their unique needs and goals.
APPROACH
I use a variety of treatment approaches to help my clients meet and maintain their goals. Some of these include: Person-Centered, Art Therapy, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Perinatal Counseling, Motivational Interviewing, Narrative Therapy, and trauma-informed Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT).
WHAT TO EXPECT
In our sessions, you will notice quickly how much I value comfort and warmth with blankets to soft lighting. My space holds inspiring stories of past and present client’s artwork on all walls. I bring a mix of compassion, humor and being boldly honest with feedback and supports.

Outside of Work
When I am not working, you will find me traveling with my husband, Jordan, and our two dogs, Gus and Cora. I enjoy the summer months outside gardening, camping, sightseeing, waterfall chasing and trying out new restaurants and breweries. During the colder months, you might find me watching movies, cooking, or baking.
