I have over 10 years of experience helping adults, teens, couples, and families in crisis.
Emily is currently accepting new clients. Throughout our lives, we all encounter many defining moments that have lasting imprints on who we are and who we become. Although this is a universal lived experience, not everyone has social support or a plan for how to navigate this process. Therapy is an effective method of providing additional support to help these life transitions seem less daunting and more doable. Emily is committed to working alongside clients to understand their lived experiences, while improving quality of life.

I help adolescents and adults navigate difficulties in their lives. Some of the treatment areas in which I work relate to identity (e.g., LGBTQ+ individuals), anxiety, transitions, values, trauma, and mood. My goal is to create an open and safe environment from which to explore, process, and learn. It is an honor to get to know you and to work collaboratively to address whatever brings you to therapy. I look forward to speaking with you.

I'm a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and a Certified Yoga Therapist.
I focus on the client's needs and reasons for seeking therapy. I view each person/couple as a whole unique individual/unit - who they are in all areas of their life, and what are all the things that have shaped them.

I am willing to see individuals and specialize in areas such as aging, anger management, anxiety, coping skills, cultural stress, depression, family conflict, job stress, legal stress, life coaching, life transitions, parenting, relationship issues, spirituality, stress, trauma, and PTSD.
I believe that we all have strengths and are capable of lasting change. "Flaws" that we see in ourselves are typically adaptive reactions and self-protective in nature. The more we understand the mechanisms at play, the more we can surrender what no longer serves us. By renewing the mind and spirit (increasing insight, self-awareness, and self-acceptance), we can move toward transformational and authentic connection with ourselves and others.

I work with individuals and families navigating complex situations who want things to feel different, even if they’re not sure where to start.

I work with a variety of clients who all have one thing in common; the need to make sense of and overcome longstanding or deeply entrenched relationship or personal challenges. People like you, who grow tired of asking "When does life get better, and when do things change?" My answer may surprise you...it doesn't, and they don't. But that's our reason for hope; we don't have to rely on fuzzy concepts like "life" and "things", when we can engage in a powerful therapeutic process of authentic connection, restoration of hope, psychoeducation, evidence-based treatments, and helping you balance radical acceptance with skillful change.

I work with children, teens, individuals, families, LGBTQIA+ and couples (relationship issues, nonmonogamy, polyamory, infidelity, coparenting).
I sincerely believe in the power of truly being seen and understood by another human being. This is my top priority in the work I do. First and foremost I hope to hear about you and your experience, and understand where you're at in life. When we are seen by another with compassion, I believe it naturally opens up access to our own inner wisdom. I like to work in collaboration and alongside you in a way that honors your wisdom to make the right decisions that line up with your own values and beliefs. After working for over twenty years as a nurse, I decided to become a therapist because I believe our mental health is so important!
