Amber Menifield

Welcome! I’m Amber Menifield, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in New York. I am honored to support individuals from diverse backgrounds on their unique journeys toward healing and growth. My approach is compassionate and collaborative, tailored to meet your individual needs. My goal is to provide a safe and supportive space where you feel heard, empowered, and equipped to move toward your personal goals with clarity and confidence.

My passion for working with autistic and neurodivergent individuals stems from a deep value of understanding, acceptance, and empowerment. I have witnessed firsthand the challenges that come with navigating a world that often lacks the flexibility to embrace neurodiversity. I believe that everyone deserves a space where they are valued for who they are. My goal is to honor each individual’s unique way of thinking, feeling, and experiencing the world, while offering the support and tools to navigate life on their own terms.

I take an affirming, person-centered, and strength-based approach by focusing on what makes each individual unique and resilient. I celebrate the strengths, creativity, and insight of each person. My work is guided by collaboration and respect, ensuring that therapy is a space where clients feel safe to express themselves authentically. I help clients identify and build upon their existing strengths, develop self-advocacy skills, and navigate challenges with self-compassion and confidence. My hope is to support self-acceptance and empowerment, so individuals can move forward in ways that feel authentic and fulfilling to them.
