Amber Gillispie

I hold a master’s in social work, am trained in EMDR, and am a Chemical Dependency Counselor Assistant. I specialize in helping clients with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationships, military PTSD, and more. My diverse skill set allows me to tailor my approach to meet the unique needs of each client.

I joined Mares Cares in January 2023, and I am committed to providing high-quality care to my clients. My availability spans Monday through Thursday, offering both in-person and phone sessions. During the summer, my hours are from 10 AM to 5 PM, and in the winter, I extend my availability to 10 AM to 8 PM. I pride myself on being flexible and accommodating to my clients' schedules, ensuring that therapy fits seamlessly into their lives.

My therapeutic philosophy is centered on creating a supportive and nonjudgmental environment where clients can freely explore their emotions, thoughts, and experiences. I believe in guiding clients toward self-awareness, growth, and positive change, helping them develop the tools they need to navigate life's challenges.

In my free time, I am passionate about spending time outdoors. I love camping, planting flowers, and riding my four-wheeler. These activities help me recharge and stay connected to nature. Additionally, I cherish moments spent with my family, as they are a source of joy and support in my life.

I am enthusiastic about the opportunity to work together to achieve your therapeutic goals and enhance your quality of life!
