Hello! My name is Amber Cortines. First and foremost, I am a child of God.  I feel as if my purpose in life is to make Him and His love known to others.  It was through various life circumstances and a calling from the Lord that I began to pursue counseling in 2019.  I then became a Licensed Professional Counselor. 


I have a passion for working with children, adolescents, and individuals.  I enjoy incorporating play into the therapeutic process and truly entering a child’s world through play. 

I value the importance of allowing others to feel seen, valued,and heard.  My hope is that individuals feel safe and cared for during our time together.


I am  a Board Certified Professional Christian Counselor and, if preferred, can integrate psychological principles with biblical teachings and spiritual practices.  I also offer evidence based approaches such as EFT, ERP, and CBT.


I feel so honored that the Lord has called me to walk alongside others on their therapeutic journey, and I would love to partner with you on your journey.

Meeting Each Person With Care
