It can be heartbreaking to not have the relationship you want, the health you want or the fulfilling and rewarding work that you want no matter how hard you try.
I can help.
Working with neuroplasticity and attachment science, I help people repattern their nervous system to create new relationship and sexuality templates and have better experiences in the realms of health, wealth, relationships and sexuality.

Do you have it all in life except what you want more than anything: your heart's deepest desires?
When working hard and doing everything right isn't enough it's time to play and make miracles happen and make it fun.

I offer more than just talk therapy.
Hi, I'm Amber St. Germain, a Therapist and Coach (MFT) and I’ve been on my own personal growth journey for over twenty years and I believe that personal growth, healing and therapy can be playful and fun! Indeed, they are deep play and deep fun!
I'm an Attachment (relationship science) Therapist and Somatic (body based) Sexuality Coach with over twenty years supporting clients and their personal growth. I offer sessions online and in person providing traditional talk therapy where I listen attentively and compassionately, delving into your daily challenges as well as your deeper wounds, traumas, and relationship struggles. I aim to truly understand you through reflective listening. However, I offer more than just talk therapy; I provide you with the opportunity for genuine healing and transformation.
NO EDITS AT ALL
What is Deep Play Therapy?
Deep Play Therapy is the perspective that growth and healing can be fun. Many people think that growth and healing are hard and painful but it doesn't have to be that way.
When we proactively work on our challenges and traumas then we don’t have the experience of life bringing us to our knees in unpleasant ways forcing us to “do our work.”
Proactively we can do our emotional work and healing that we all have to do as a result of our upbringings, the cultures we grew up in and our Inherited Family Traumas in a way that is playful and even fun, deep fun. Healing ourselves can also help heal our families, our children born or unborn, and even the culture and world we live in which can be deeply rewarding and deep fun.
You were born for this! This is a special time in history where we finally have the tools and opportunity to heal not just ourselves but our children, families, ancestors and the world and culture we live in.
Let me show you how >

Joy, Ecstasy and Even Ongoing Happiness Are Possible for You!
Sometimes on this healing journey we need to grieve and sometimes we need to rage. There is a time and place for that and it is important, even crucial. In this healing process, there are also new opportunities and new experiences on the other side. Awakening often grows out of hardship. However, no matter how hard it has been when you get to the other side you will feel more bliss, joy, ecstasy and even happiness than you ever thought possible before.
Healing is never complete until we feel not just the negative feelings that are blocking our happiness and joy but also the positive feelings waiting for us on the other side of the grief and the rage. To fully heal our lives we need new, different and better experiences to replace the old limiting ones that made us feel frustrated and hopeless. Peak experiences of joy, ecstasy and realization are healing.

How I can help.
We focus on trauma healing, relationships, sex therapy, intergenerational healing and helping you with your attachment style. I’m Certified in Inherited Family Trauma Healing aka. Hellinger Family Systemic Constellations and Advanced Theta Healing to upgrade your deep subconscious beliefs. We can have deep fun with Dream Work, Inner Parts, Sand Tray, Art Therapy, Life Purpose Astrology, Past Life Clearing and more. I create a non-judgmental, safe space for you to be yourself and explore what you really want most of all and what's blocking you. I truly desire to know your deepest challenges and struggles so that together we can get you to your next level of breakthrough with grace and celebration. That's my jam! It's what I was born to do: to help you solve your problems. As both a Therapist and Life Coach, it’s important to me to both help you to heal and reach your goals so you can have the experiences and life you desire and dream of.    I believe the most effective and efficient way to heal is to use physical strategies (lifestyle, habits, routines, diet, exercise, herbs and supplements, medications, ect.) and psychological strategies (therapy, problem-solving, positive self talk, ect.), along with relationship improvements and spiritual healing (meaning, purpose, values, meditation, prayer, connection with nature, humanitarianism etc.) I also offer Nature and Movement Therapy where we can meet in a semi-private place outdoors to walk or sit in nature and do our talk therapy together. This is optional as I have a well appointed and private office where we can meet inside as well as online through a secure zoom platform.
My Story
In addition to my education and professional expertise, I've personally gone from trauma bonding with abusive, unavailable and addicted men to being in a happy and healthy marriage. I've been shut down sexually, in-orgasmic, and experienced sex as painful to becoming a fully orgasmic and joyfully embodied woman.
I’ve also healed a debilitating thyroid disease and autoimmune condition that left me bedridden for over a decade. I've overcome chronic insomnia and chronic migraines which I had both for over a decade as well as chronic abnormal heavy bleeding for over 5 years. I've healed my health through my own research and study, spiritual practice, lifestyle hacks and a combination of natural and mainstream medicine.
I'm passionate about helping women understand and heal their hormones and fertility as well as their relational, sexual and emotional lives so they can have the health, relationships, sex and life they want to have.
