I can help you navigate through change: job loss, grief, family estrangement, divorce/breakup, gender exploration, working on anxious attachment or people-pleasing. Together, we can work to integrate trauma, depression, anxiety and other symptoms into a life that feels worthwhile, however you define that. There's definitely more than one path for healing, and what can look like stability to some can be uncomfortably stifling to others. I will utilize a combination of narrative therapy, motivational interviewing, DBT/CBT skills (very optional!), feminist therapy and insight-oriented therapy to help you find your way forward. My biggest rule in therapy is "no trauma shaming." That is, if you are sharing your trauma and include a qualifier such as "other people have it worse," I will remind you that your trauma is valid! Surviving trauma is difficult enough; shame is a log lying on the train tracks. We can move it, and move forward, with the correct equipment.

Hi, I’m Emily, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and founder of EverFidelis Counseling & Consulting. I specialize in supporting individuals, parents, and caregivers who are navigating big transitions—whether that’s processing grief, adjusting to a new diagnosis, managing burnout, or untangling generational patterns that no longer serve them. With a trauma-informed lens and deep compassion for the full human experience, I offer a warm, nonjudgmental space where you can feel safe, supported, and truly heard. My practice is rooted in approaches like CBT, Narrative Therapy, mindfulness-based techniques, and strengths-based care. I believe therapy is a collaborative process—one where you get to reclaim your story, build on your existing strengths, and move toward the version of yourself you’re becoming. As someone who has worked across hospice, schools, behavioral health, and family systems, I know that healing looks different for everyone. My goal is to walk alongside you—faithfully and thoughtfully—as you find clarity, stability, and hope in your journey.

I’m a licensed clinical social worker who believes therapy should feel like a real conversation—not a test, not a lecture, and definitely not something you have to “perform” for. My goal is to create a space where you can breathe, slow down, and talk honestly about what’s going on without feeling judged or overwhelmed. I work with adults navigating trauma, anxiety, relationship stress, burnout, and big life transitions. I blend approaches like trauma-informed CBT, ACT, DBT skills, solution-focused work, and mind-body techniques to help you make sense of what you’re feeling and build tools that actually fit your life. I’m gentle when you need space, direct when you want clarity, and collaborative every step of the way.

My goal for each session is help you feel comfortable so you can explore and move past those challenges.

I believe I bring this style to my own clients. I love what I do and I bring this excitement into my sessions because I want people to feel safe and grow in their confidence to overcome the obstacles they are facing.

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by Pennsylvania rather than a city like Philadelphia?

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in the state. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across Pennsylvania from Pittsburgh to Scranton! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in Pennsylvania.

Will my therapist take insurance?

When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on Women's Issues?

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need. For example, your selected specialty, Women's Issues, is filtering therapists in Pennsylvania that work with patients with similar concerns.

What are the "Clients say I’m" badges?

Grow Therapy asks patients about their experience with therapists after they have had a certain number of sessions. After enough responses, we add those characteristics to their profiles to help you find the best online therapists for you. We're still working on collecting this information from all our therapists.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

What to expect during your first session?

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
