About Amber Nicole
My truth
Hailing from the vibrant heart of Atlanta, GA I am on a mission to infuse healing, harmony, and empowerment into every verse I write, every movement I curate, and every canvas I touch. As a poet, artist, author, healer, revolutionary change agent, clinically licensed social worker, trauma therapist, and victim advocate, I embody the intersectionality of my identities, using my multipassionate talents to create a ripple of change within all communities.
My journey began with a deep-seated passion for words, colors, and stories that reflect the lived experiences of marginalized voices. Through my clinical work, I aim to weave a tapestry of unity, guiding children, adolescents, families, and adults toward paths of healing and resilience. My approach is not just therapeutic but deeply soulful, recognizing the interconnectedness of individual struggles and collective triumphs. I believe in the power of , allowing individuals to rewrite their stories with strength and authenticity.
In my role as a trauma therapist and victim advocate, I aim to serve as a beacon of hope for those navigating the complexities of trauma and injustice. My warmth and intuitive empathy create safe spaces where radical self-exploration can flourish, breaking down social barriers and fostering a sense of inner solidarity.
Beyond the clinical realm, I find solace and expression in heART, through lyricism, dance, poetry, painting, and such. My creations are windows into the soul of a generation, capturing emotions and thoughts that resonate with the collective consciousness. Through my creative births, I envision a world where heART, commUNITY, and advocacy converge seamlessly, nurturing a society where every voice is heard, valued, and empowered.
My Experience
I have had the privilege of serving my community as a dually Licensed Master Social Worker and Certified Victim Advocate, for over seven enriching years.
My passion lies in guiding clients toward a higher quality of life through self-healing and self-acceptance practices. My clinical expertise encompasses a wide range of areas, including integrative trauma-informed therapy for adults/adolescents/children/families/groups, post-partum depression and peri-natal depression therapy, LGBTQIA-affirming therapy, support group facilitation, case management, crime victim advocacy, first-generation college student mentorship, community education and outreach, outpatient/in-patient psychiatric treatment, community referrals, clinical consultations, behavioral health therapy, and much more.
My approach centers on identifying and nurturing my clients' skills, gifts, and talents, through exploring aspects such as internal/external trauma wounds, relational dynamics, spiritual beliefs, community roles, political impact, family dynamics, self-concept, cultural expression, and sense of self within broader contexts. By integrating mind, body, and soul healing, I aim to inspire people to speak their truth boldly, take up space unapologetically, and have faith in their self-healing abilities. I believe, as individuals heal internally, this awareness and expansion of healing will naturally extend to their relationships and environments, fostering a healthier and more connected community.
