About Emily
I have enjoyed working in the counseling field for over 15 years and value using a positive psychology and relational approach. I believe therapy is a collaborative process, aiming to provide a supportive environment with transparency and open communication. I encourage my clients to trust their own process and engage in self-acceptance to promote a better sense of self-worth and lasting emotional/behavioral changes. I enjoy integrating mindfulness to develop improved awareness of emotions, thoughts, and behaviors. I feel that helping individuals develop insight into emotional and relationship patterns is a key part of the therapeutic process. Areas of expertise include anxiety, bipolar disorder, PTSD, depression, personality disorders, and substance use. I have the training and experience to work with individuals who are survivors of high-control groups, abusive relationships/communities, and spiritual trauma. My theoretical approaches include: positive psychology, emotional acceptance techniques (ACT), movement therapy (DMT), substance abuse counseling (including both harm-reduction and abstinence approaches), and relational therapy. I genuinely feel honored that people allow me into their lives and I look forward to collaborating with you! Read more Show less
