Hi! My name is Emily, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in the state of Connecticut offering supportive, client-centered therapy for young adults, adults, and older adults. I received my graduate degree from the University of Connecticut School of Social Work. My practice is a space where you can feel heard, respected, and empowered to work through life's challenges at your own pace.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

During our first session together we will start with brief introductions and discuss the reasons why you are currently seeking therapy and to make sure I am a good fit for you. We will talk about the specific difficulties you are facing, and briefly discuss your history. From there, we will identify goals you would like to work on.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

With 6 years of experience working with various client populations, I am equipped to offer support, understanding, and practical tools to help you manage your symptoms. My goal is to help you feel more grounded, connected, and capable whether you're managing a health diagnosis, feeling stuck, or just needing a place to process and grow. Therapy with me is a collaborative process, and you're always in the driver's seat.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

I specialize in working with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, and the emotional impact of chronic illness or health related concerns. With training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I integrate structured, evidence-based techniques with a flexible and compassionate approach. Depending on your needs, we might use worksheets, homework assignments, or simply focus on open, meaningful conversation in session.
