Emma is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker who specializes in working with law enforcement, first responders, nurses, corrections, dispatchers, veterans and their families. As the wife of a police officer and veteran, clients can expect to be able to work with someone who understands the culture, lifestyle, pressures, and stressors that come with such high-stress, high-stakes careers. Emma also specializes in treating trauma, and stress management. Emma is trained in the use of Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), a highly effective eye-movement therapy created for the treatment of trauma, and HeartMath biofeedback.
Emma also has advanced training in Gottman Method Couples Therapy and is passionate about working with couples to increase relationship satisfaction and heal past hurts. Emma also offers marathon couples sessions over 2-4 days. Couples therapy is open to anyone, and Emma has experience working with lawyers, physicians, pilots and other high-stress careers.
Emma offers an empathic, yet no-nonsense approach to therapy. If you have tried talk therapy without success, consider working together with Emma to creatively find solutions and help you feel better. If you're cynical or skeptical about the whole therapy thing, consider giving Emma a chance to change your mind. She likes a challenge.

I use Gottman Method in my couples work. Marathon couples sessions are a great choice for couples in crisis, on the brink of separation, or who just are short on time. Meeting for an hour and a half once a week is often not enough for couples who are in distress, and marathon sessions allow them to gain traction and regain hope and connection in a short amount of time..
