Amber Buys (she/her)

Counseling Student Intern

I especially enjoy working with children, teens, and families and supporting them through emotional regulation, communication challenges, and life transitions. Through my work in school settings, I have developed a deep appreciation for how family relationships, community, and life experiences shape the way we understand ourselves and connect with others.


I approach therapy with curiosity and compassion, believing that meaningful change often begins when people feel safe enough to explore their stories. I enjoy working collaboratively with clients to build insight, strengthen relationships, and create healthier patterns of connection. My life experiences have also shaped my belief that people are often making the best decisions they can within difficult circumstances, and I strive to meet each client with empathy, respect, and a non-judgmental perspective.
