LPC, 14 years of experience
My approach to counseling is grounded in client and family centered care and evidence-based practices, ensuring that the methods used are supported by the latest research. I emphasize the importance of building strong, relational connections with my clients, fostering a safe and trusting environment. Together, we stay motivated for change, working collaboratively to achieve your personal goals and enhance your well-being.
In your first session, you can expect a comprehensive assessment to gain a clear understanding of your values and challenges. We'll take the time to discuss your goals for therapy and identify the areas you want to focus on. By the end of our session, we'll have a tailored plan in place for your next steps, ensuring you feel supported and motivated on your journey.
As a therapist, my strengths lie in my evidence-based and engaging approach, fostering a collaborative and empowering environment for clients. I excel in building strong, relational connections, ensuring each client feels understood and supported. My empathic nature and creative strategies make therapy sessions both effective and enjoyable. I take great pleasure in seeing patients and families achieve their goals, celebrating their progress and success along the way.
I enjoy working with clients of all ages and have extensive experience working with children (as young as 2) and adolescents and their parents. My direct and relational approach is ideal for those who are looking to take the next steps toward meaningful change. Together, we will create a supportive environment where positive growth and personal development are encouraged and achieved.

Dr. Emily has been very helpful with her guidance. Every meeting she is always making sure that there is something I am taking back from our sessions and have goals for our next ones. AND she is very good at being a deep listener with full attention and will respond rationally and with care (she may have to take notes like any Dr. should, but she doesn't stare at her desk like others I've seen). I like that she is very observant and that she also encourages emotional awareness. Thank you Dr!
