Hi, I'm Emily! I love helping my clients identify their needs and goals, make changes in their lives, and feel like themselves again. Life can get hard sometimes. Even if you've always been the one who's 'held it together,' losing a loved one, feeling the pressure to be perfect, or always pushing through without support can become heavy. Maybe you're feeling stretched too thin trying to keep up with work, a home, a relationship, and family expectations. Or maybe you keep finding yourself repeating the same patterns in your relationships, dating the same person again and again.

Everyone sees you as capable. You are the strong one, the reliable one, the one who keeps it together no matter what. You learned early that your needs came second. Now your mind never fully rests. You replay conversations, anticipate worst case scenarios, and stay braced for something to go wrong. Anxiety, trauma, or depression run quietly beneath the surface. You are exhausted from surviving. You do not want to just function anymore. You want to feel safe, steady, and finally at ease in your own life.

You're a Black woman who looks like you have it together - accomplished, dependable, the one everyone leans on.

You may be in graduate school, navigating a major life transition, or carrying patterns passed down through generations. I work with Black women and families who are ready to understand what's underneath no- t just manage it.

FAQ - Therapist Gender
Does it matter what gender my therapist is?
In general, there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or because they feel more comfortable with a therapist of their own gender due to shared life experiences or perspectives. Considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender may matter or improve their therapeutic experience. The most important consideration is that a client is able to build a trusting relationship with their therapist.
Should I see a female therapist?
Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist. For women, this could be because they believe that they will be able to better connect with a woman, and that a female therapist will be able to relate to their specific challenges and personal issues. It may be particularly beneficial for women to see a female therapist, for example, for gender-specific issues, such as sexism in the workplace, relationship issues, and gender roles. The most important factor in therapy is the client-therapist connection, and a therapist's gender as well as many other factors may play an important role in this.
Do therapists get specific training to help with women’s concerns?
Therapists are trained to provide care to clients of any gender. However, some therapists may pursue additional training in feminist therapy, gender-specific issues, or women’s mental health. Female clients may wish to ask prospective therapists whether they have received specific training in the client’s primary area(s) of concern, or whether they have worked extensively with women on issues similar to their own.
How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience in treating women?
It’s OK—even encouraged!—to ask a therapist directly whether and how often they have treated women in the past, or whether they have treated women dealing with the client’s most prominent concern(s). Competent therapists will be happy to share their educational background, preferred treatment modalities, and prior client experience to help an individual find the therapist best suited to their needs.
