Amber Charisse Jointer, LISW, LCSW
Greetings!
I believe that the therapeutic process begins with building a trusting relationship while providing a safe and non judgmental space to share life challenges and stressors. I provide services with a high degree of empathy in a manner that is very down to earth and authentic. I utilize an individualized, holistic, client centered approach that is tailored to meet your unique needs.
Why choose to work with me?
I specialize in the treatment and management of anxiety, depression, PTSD, life transitions as well as personality and other mood disorders. I am also very passionate about working with neurodivergent and highly sensitive individuals. Together, we will work towards your goals, develop coping strategies, and foster personal growth.
My dream is that every individual will find and achieve their higher purpose because in life you have to do more than live, you have to thrive. I would be honored to walk alongside you as a guide on your journey to your best self and your best life
“If you want to touch the past, touch a rock. If you want to touch the present, touch a flower. If you want to touch the future, touch a life.”

My Story
For as long as I can remember, I have had an inner calling and desire to hold space for other humans. This started as a young child when I would go along with my grandparents to deliver meals to and visit with the elderly community in the town in Michigan where I was born and raised.
As a young woman, I navigated a series of challenges that led to my own healing journey and spiritual awakening. My personal experience helped me discover how important it is to live authentically. Now I spend my days helping other people release the past and live a life that is aligned with the true nature of their soul.
