About Emily
Hi! My name is Emily and my loves are my family, adventures, and travel. Oh yeah, throw Disney, animals, sports, and cooking in there as well!! A little bit about me, I am a Midwest girl now living in Florida and my original professional pursuit in life was Meteorology (yep weather ) but having lived all over the country and sharing experiences with so many people both personally and professionally, I realized that most of us are just trying to make it through the day. This in-turn formed another love....counseling. I received my bachelor's degree from UMass and went-on to receive my Masters in Counseling/Psychology from Palm Beach Atlantic University with a concentration in Family and Forensics. I spent my early counseling years working with those in incarceration as well as providing individual counseling with both students and families at a local university, as well as a treatment center. I now work with a diverse population through a local non-profit. I am experienced in working with depression, anxiety, marital and family, parenting issues, as well as motivation and self-esteem to name a few. I have also worked extensively with care-giver issues, traumas, and addictions. As a licensed mental health counselor, I utilize many therapeutic techniques , but mostly I come from a holistic, person-centered approach that is integrative and driven by you, because what you are struggling with is unique to YOU and there is no "one perfect therapy" that fits everyone! You are awesome just by visiting this site, that itself shows you want something to change. I am the right counselor for you if you are willing to try; things can change if you want it. I also have my limitations...I can't solve your problems, but we can work on goals together for change, I also can't give you the winning lottery numbers, or wave a magic wand that all your problems will immediately go away. But I will be your cheerleader, your support, and the person who is ready to take this step with you!!! Read more Show less
