Amber Reeves, MA

Qualified Mental Health Practitioner (QMHP)
Naperville, Telehealth

You already possess resilience and strengths; sometimes, you just need support to see and use them fully. With over 10 years of experience, I support children, adolescents, adults, and families through life’s most challenging seasons. Much of my background has been rooted in community mental health, where I developed my deep passion for walking alongside those feeling overwhelmed or disconnected, particularly those impacted by trauma, shifting family dynamics, disordered eating, and chronic stress.

My approach is collaborative and strengths-based, rooted in the belief that healing happens through a strong therapeutic relationship. I meet you where you are, helping you build on your existing inner strengths, resilience, and wisdom. Together, we gently explore emotional and relational patterns while fostering confidence, insight, and self-compassion. My work is trauma-informed and psychodynamically grounded, with mindfulness woven in to support emotional regulation, body awareness, and stress management.

In addition to treating anxiety, depression, and trauma, I have extensive experience with grief, life transitions, disordered eating, and family conflict. My previous background in dance continues to shape my appreciation for the mind-body connection and how emotions physically manifest. Therapy with me is steady, compassionate, and real. Think of it as having someone beside you with a flashlight in the darker moments, celebrating every step forward, no matter how small.

Our sessions will be grounded in trust, focused on helping you reconnect with a sense of safety, agency, and meaning. You don’t have to carry this alone, and healing doesn’t have to happen all at once. If you’re ready to begin, I invite you to reach out to see how we might work together.
