You are always “on.”
You handle what needs handling, anticipate everyone else's needs, and rarely feel fully off duty — even when nothing is technically wrong.
Trauma-informed psychotherapy for people who are capable, insightful, responsible — and tired of living in a nervous system that still feels like it has to stay on guard.
I work with children ages 6+, teens, and adults in Peachtree Corners and virtually across Georgia. My approach integrates EMDR-trained, somatic and nervous-system informed care with traditional psychotherapy.
Amber Amick is a Georgia Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), National Certified Counselor (NCC), Certified Professional Counselor Supervisor (CPCS), and Co-Owner and Co-CEO of Kula Wellness Group.
I provide trauma-informed therapy in Peachtree Corners and virtually across Georgia. My work is especially focused on trauma, nervous-system overwhelm, anxiety, over-responsibility, identity and life transitions, ADHD and neurodivergence, body disconnection, relational patterns, and women's health transitions.
I am trained in EMDR and am currently a Student of Somatic Experiencing®. I have completed the Somatic Experiencing® Professional Training through Intermediate Level 3 and may integrate Somatic Experiencing® techniques within my professional scope and current level of training.
But internally, your system may be working much harder than anyone realizes. You do not need to be falling apart for something to deserve attention.
You handle what needs handling, anticipate everyone else's needs, and rarely feel fully off duty — even when nothing is technically wrong.
Insight has helped you name what is happening, but your body, emotions, or relationships still respond in ways that feel automatic.
Boundaries can feel like rejection. Rest can feel selfish. Other people's emotions can feel like something you are supposed to fix.
You may live mostly in your head, miss signs that you are overwhelmed until you crash, or feel as though your body is something to manage.
Identity, parenting, fertility, postpartum, perimenopause, relationships, career, or another life transition may be asking you to meet yourself differently.
You may be exploring diagnosed or undiagnosed ADHD and neurodivergence, especially after years of masking, over-functioning, or being misunderstood.
I am interested in the story you are telling me — and in what happens in your system while you tell it. Breath, posture, activation, shutdown, urgency, numbness, hesitation, and the places where words disappear can all give us useful information.
That does not mean I analyze every movement or push you into body-based work. Trauma-informed therapy means choice and collaboration matter. We notice, get curious, slow down when needed, and use what is helpful.
My work can include traditional talk therapy, EMDR, nervous-system awareness, mindfulness, cognitive and behavioral strategies, relational and attachment work, and somatic approaches informed by my training.
No diagnosis or category captures a whole person. These are simply some of the concerns and life experiences I work with most often.
Including developmental, relational, and sexual trauma, with careful attention to pacing, regulation, and the meaning of protective patterns.
Chronic vigilance, shutdown, panic, overthinking, difficulty resting, and the exhausting cycle of pushing through until your system cannot.
Diagnosed or undiagnosed ADHD, masking, executive-function challenges, identity, self-trust, and presentations that have been missed or misunderstood.
Learning where you end and someone else begins without turning boundaries into rejection, punishment, or another performance.
Puberty, fertility journeys, pregnancy and postpartum experiences, perimenopause, parenting, body changes, and identity transitions.
Exploring who you are, how you relate, what you have learned to expect from relationships, and what you want to choose differently.
My practice is affirming of LGBTQIA+ clients and people exploring identity, relationships, family roles, and the many ways people build meaningful lives.
I do not expect you to perform therapy correctly. You can arrive unsure, tired, quiet, frustrated, overthinking, or without a polished explanation.
I pay close attention and reflect patterns with care. We make space for what is obvious and what is harder to put into words.
There is no prize for going deeper before your system is ready. We can slow down, orient, build resources, and return to something later.
Protective patterns make sense in context. Curiosity gives us more room to understand them than shame ever will.
Warm does not mean vague. When I notice a pattern that may matter, I am willing to name it and explore it with you rather than around you.
Honest about their patterns. Honest about their lived experiences. Honest about their capacity to change. I believe healing becomes more possible when we feel understood rather than judged and when the body has enough safety to stop treating every challenge like an emergency.
I came to this work with an ongoing interest in the connection between mental health, movement, the body, and the nervous system. That curiosity continues to shape how I practice and how I learn.
As Co-Owner and Co-CEO of Kula Wellness Group, I also help lead the practice, support clinicians, and think about how therapy, professional development, education, and community care can become more connected.
Each offering has its own purpose and boundaries. Therapy, supervision, coaching, and professional education are distinct relationships rather than interchangeable versions of the same service.
