HI! My name is Emily Mertz. I’m a graduate of Drexel University with 17 years experience in the field of mental health and human services. I’m a professional counselor and also a Board Certified Creative Arts Therapist. I pride myself in having an innovative approach to treatment which incorporates the use of both verbal and non-verbal therapeutic modalities, using a client-centered approach to treatment. I specialize in treating trauma, but have worked with individuals of all ages and at all levels of care, from those struggling with transitions or major life adjustments, to those coping with Chronic mental health conditions.
In my practice, I aim to be both empowering and affirming, using a client-centered strengths based approach to treatment. My goal is to help clients improve self-awareness and confidence to make changes, while improving their ability to live happier, healthier and more personally full-filling lives.
If you are looking for a supportive therapist who can help you to realize your strengths and empower you to create meaningful change in your life, I’m your person. Whether you are seeking a compassionate space to work through your anxieties or an affirming voice to help you develop a sense of identity, my versatile approach is here to help guide!
