Amber Arellano
Hi, I’m Amber. I’m therapist born in raised in Austin Texas. With over 20 years of experience in community mental health. I have been working with individuals, couples and families as they navigate life’s challenges and reconnect with themselves and their loved ones.
My specialties include anxiety management, trauma recovery utilizing EMDR, and confidence building. I'm passionate about supporting women who are deciding whether or not to have a baby, navigating pregnancy, or adjusting to postpartum life. In addition I work with teens ages 11 and up offer an affirming, developmentally appropriate space to explore identity and build resilience.
Much of my practice centers around supporting parents through the many layers of parenthood; identity shifts, emotional waves, relationship changes, and the quite questions that can feel hard to say out loud. In my practice I integrate EMDR therapy to help clients process trauma and distressing experiences in a way that promotes healing and lasting change.
I hold a Masters of Arts in Counseling with a focus on Marriage and Family Therapy from St. Edward’s University, a Bachelor’s degrees in biomedical sciences and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in Texas (TX 205086).
