Hello and thanks for stopping by! My name is Amber Belanger and I am here to help you find your path! 

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who is energetic and passionate about the therapeutic process. My style is comfortable, relaxed, and sprinkled with humor. I am a Gottman Trained Educator and am certified in both Bringing Baby Home and The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work programs. I have experience working with teens/adolescents, families, adults, and couples, in a vast array of relational challenges. I am comfortable addressing anxiety, depression, trauma, interpersonal/relationship issues, separation and divorce, grief and loss, perinatal issues, parenting issues, and adjustment difficulties. 

I work primarily from a family systems perspective and offer counseling through a strength-based and client-centered approach. You will find my personality to be balanced, encouraging, supportive, and directive when necessary.

I am a transplant from California and have been in the PNW since 2007. I got my start in helping people while working as a paralegal in Family Law. Wanting to integrate the person mind, body and spirit, I decided to pursue a counseling degree. I completed my undergraduate degree from California State University, Long Beach and received a Masters of Science in Human Services with an emphasis in Marriage and Family Therapy from Capella University. While completing my graduate degree, I got the opportunity to move to Hawaii and spent five years working in schools and community mental health agencies all over the island of Oahu.
