My Approach to Helping

"Everyone experiences adversity from time to time. At some point in your life, you may require help developing healthy coping skills to overcome the adversity you're facing. I began seeing Emily when adversities in my life were overwhelming. Her warmth and compassion are genuine and evident throughout her work. She is a trustworthy, guiding, and energetic therapist to work with." -23 year old female.

"One of the things I really love about my sessions with Emily is that we laugh a lot. I've cried a fair bit too, but Emily has helped me to see and even begin to actually like myself. I have felt safe enough to face the things I fear are true of me and to love the things that I hope (or know) are true of me." -56 year old female.
