Amber Hillman , NCPS

Amber Hillman is a licensed therapist based in the United Kingdom who brings six years of clinical experience to her work with people facing trauma, anxiety, panic, depression, relationship difficulties, and major life or work transitions. She holds the NCPS credential, a professional qualification that reflects formal training in counselling and psychotherapy, and she combines that training with EMDR expertise to support clients in processing distressing memories and shifting how those memories affect day-to-day life.

EMDR is used by Amber to help the brain reprocess traumatic experiences so they lose some of their intense, intrusive quality. She also draws on cognitive behavioural techniques and client-centered methods, adapting therapy to each person rather than following a single fixed approach. This flexibility allows her to address complex concerns such as grief, addiction, ADHD, intimacy and parenting challenges, as well as issues related to identity and relationships.

Amber aims to create an open, nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be explored and where clients are supported to take the steps toward a more fulfilling life. She accepts clients in the United Kingdom and works with international clients as well, offering a collaborative process that focuses on practical coping and meaningful change.

Therapeutic approaches and online support for trauma and change

Amber uses EMDR to help people reprocess distressing memories so those memories feel less overwhelming and intrusive - a method often recommended for trauma-related symptoms and intense emotional responses. She also applies Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and building practical skills to manage anxiety, mood, and stress. In addition, a client-centered approach underpins her work, emphasizing empathy, collaboration, and the client’s own goals so therapy is shaped around what matters most to the individual.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Amber works collaboratively with each person to decide which combination of methods best fits their needs, goals, and preferences. She reviews progress and adapts plans as therapy unfolds.

Offering sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging makes therapy more accessible and easier to fit into daily life. These options provide flexibility in scheduling, allow continuity of care across locations, and let people choose the format that feels most comfortable for them while working with licensed professionals and therapists committed to practical, evidence-informed support.
