About Amber
Amber Lynn Dicker is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in South Carolina with nine years of clinical experience. She works with people dealing with anxiety, depression, bipolar symptoms, ADHD, and problems tied to trauma and abuse. She also helps with relationship and family concerns, career stress, anger, low self-esteem, and struggles related to identity including LGBT issues.
Amber uses straightforward, goal-focused work. She helps clients spot unhelpful thought patterns and build coping skills that make daily life easier.
How Amber works
Sessions emphasize clear steps and skills people can practice between meetings. Her approach draws from cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior strategies, motivational interviewing, and trauma-focused therapy. That mix lets her tailor sessions to practical needs - for example reducing anxiety, managing mood swings, or handling intense emotions more safely.
People can expect a calm, collaborative style. Amber aims to break problems into manageable steps and to build skills for handling stress, strong feelings, or relationship conflict. She encourages small changes that add up over time.
She offers online options such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and scheduling follows the platform process.

How therapeutic approaches work online
Amber uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT is practical and problem-focused, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, and day-to-day stress.She also uses dialectical behavior therapy skills to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication. DBT strategies can help when emotions feel overwhelming or impulsive actions become a pattern.
Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Amber will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and recommend techniques that fit. That plan can change as progress is made so therapy stays relevant and useful.
Online therapy lets people access care in flexible ways. Video calls are closest to an in-person session for face-to-face work, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit a break at work, live chat allows quick check-ins, and text-based messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make it easier to use skills in real life and keep therapy consistent with a busy schedule.
