Emily Sands is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), who specializes in working with couples, teenagers, and individuals. I understand the importance of connection and acknowledge that change is the driving force of life. I believe that we all have the capacity to arrive at our own solutions, yet sometimes, we may need support and guidance. I use a strengths-based, interactive, and direct approach to support my clients in navigating life's transitions and strengthening their connections.

I work with clients in my private practice, who I believe have the capacity to resolve their own problems, however, there are times in our lives when we need assistance. I believe that as people become more accepting of themselves, they are more capable of finding happiness and contentment in their lives. I provide a safe environment for clients to explore their life path and integrate wellness with the necessary aspects of change.

I taught middle and high school for 14 years before becoming a counselor. These experiences shaped the way I think and work with my clients. I would be happy to sit with anyone from any walk of life, but my work has often focused on young people and their families in conflict or crisis. Many of my clients are high schoolers struggling with school and relationships, or parents who just can't seem to connect to their child whom they love so much. I work with college-age people who are struggling with purpose and direction, and couples who can't seem to find the path back to each other.
