About Amber Skidmore, LPCA

A note from Amber
Life can get complicated, and sometimes we just need a place to be honest about what’s really going on. I provide a genuine, supportive, judgment-free space where counseling feels like a conversation, not an interrogation. Together, we’ll explore what’s keeping you stuck, build practical coping skills, recognize your strengths, and work toward meaningful change. My experience includes mental health, substance use, recovery, relationships, stress, and life transitions. Outside of counseling, I’m an author who enjoys writing, crocheting, creativity, and family time.
