About Me, Amber
A warm welcome to my website! My name is Amber Goss. I decided to train as a counsellor due to many experiences as a young person, which led me to receive therapy. It became my safe space, where I felt neither judged nor compelled to act against my beliefs or values. I could be my authentic self and express my feelings. I have always been interested in psychology, understanding people’s responses, behaviors, and how our minds work.
Growing up, I embraced the empathy I naturally possess and wanted to further develop it through training. I completed a BA (Hons) in Person-Centred Counselling at the University of Suffolk. Before that, I studied Counselling and Psychology at Level 3 and completed a Certificate in Counselling Theory course.
In 2018, I sought to acquire additional skills that could benefit my counselling practice. Fascinated by holistic therapies, I obtained qualification as a Level 2 EFT Practitioner. You can find more information about EFT and its benefits in the ‘My Services’ section of my website.
I have worked in various mental health services, including an evening crisis sanctuary and a mother and baby unit. Additionally, I volunteered with Get Me Out the Four Walls, a registered charity in Norwich, supporting parents/carers to socialize more and overcome isolation or anxiety.
Since 2022, I have been counselling at a pregnancy and infant loss charity, a topic close to my heart. I specialize in perinatal mental health due to my experience and passion for this area. I have also provided counselling to young people in high school. I believe therapy offers them the opportunity to develop communication skills, build self-esteem, and foster healthy relationships. Today’s youth face numerous challenges, including social media pressure, the expectation to always excel without failure, bullying, and exam stress, as well as potential trauma at home, in relationships, and at school.
It is my deepest passion to offer a safe, non-judgmental, honest, and facilitative service to all my clients. I look forward to meeting you and helping you move forward into a more positive, free, and calm life.
