: Responsive Centers recently welcomed Amber Kuykendall, LMSW to our clinical team!
Amber enjoys working with clients ages five and up β especially teenagers. As a therapist, she integrates a wide range of evidence-based modalities, bringing nearly two decades of experience supporting individuals and families across diverse settings. π
βI have a lot of experience and passion working with autistic individuals, individuals diagnosed with ADHD, anxiety, depression, and trauma, people in the LGBTQIA+ population, and those with intellectual and developmental disabilities,β she shared.
Amber wishes more people understood that therapy is not a magic pill. What excites her most about this work is the ability and honor to hold space for and sit alongside people during some of the most impactful, growth-filled, and meaningful periods of life. π±
βYou have to put in hard work, and you get out as much as you put in. But you can get so much out of it,β she said. βWhen it comes to some of the most difficult experiences and emotions, the only way out is through.β
Grounded in CBT, DBT, ACT, and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Amber prioritizes teaching her clients skills, interventions, and cognitive restructuring methods that increase resilience and distress tolerance while reducing suffering. β¨
