Hi, I’m Emily. I’m a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist who works with couples and individuals from all walks of life, with a special passion for supporting those across the spectrums of gender, sexuality, and relationship orientation. Whether you are navigating identity or relationship issues, healing from trauma, or facing a major life transition, my goal is to offer a space where you can show up fully as yourself and leave one step closer to who you want to be.
My practice is LGBTQIA+ affirming, trauma-informed, and rooted in systemic thinking. I take a collaborative, humanistic approach and draw from a wide range of modalities to align our work with your goals, your story, and at your pace. If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply ready for something to shift, I’d be honored to support you on your journey.
Accessibility note: Please note that my office is located on the second floor with stair access only. Scheduling note: Please also note that I do not currently offer evening sessions. Thank you.
