"The true warrior accepts what he (she) is in ultimate humility, not as grounds for regret, but as a living challenge" - Carlos Casteneda. Treatment issues require an empathic listener. I am most effective in connecting with clients.

Hi I'm Emily. I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social worker with over 15 years of experience working with individuals of all ages to feel better about themselves and their lives. I currently provide telehealth sessions only. I have treated individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, family conflict, parenting issues, eating disorders and substance use disorders. I believe that good mental health is the foundation for a life well lived. We can explore where you feel stuck and together we can find a way forward.

Everyday living is not without stressors. How we react to events or interact in relationships can be a struggle as well as puzzling. Why do we feel the way we do? Why do we continue to make the same mistakes over and over again? How can our perceptions be so different from others? How do early experiences impact our perceptions, feelings, and behaviors? I provide a safe, comforting environment for you to explore and reflect on your past and recent experiences, feelings, and relationships. My approach is to facilitate change based on your expressed needs and goals.
