About Emily
In sessions she invites gentle exploration of how stress and past experiences live in the body. That can include simple mindfulness, art-based practices, and skills for calming an overactive stress response. She aims to help people reconnect with their own sense of safety and self-trust in small, steady steps.
Emily often works with people managing trauma, complex grief, addiction struggles, mood concerns like depression and bipolar, and attention differences such as ADHD. She also supports those facing chronic pain, caregiver strain, parenting challenges, and relationship or communication problems. Traumatic brain injury appears among the areas she lists.
Her approaches include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, and client-centered work. In practice she blends these methods to fit each person’s needs rather than following a single script.
Clients describe practical skills, paced processing of difficult memories, and creative ways to build resilience. Emily emphasizes collaboration - she and the person in therapy decide what to try together. To begin, prospective clients use the site Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to therapist availability.

Therapeutic approaches for online healing
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. It can help with anxiety, depression, and motivation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks worries and patterns into steps that can be changed with practice, which is useful for anxiety, mood concerns, and some behavior problems. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship where the therapist listens closely and follows the person’s pace to build insight and confidence.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods to try first, checking in and adjusting over time to fit goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful.
The biography does not list which online session formats are used, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example it may reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins during a break, or remove the need to be on camera if that helps someone engage. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, CBT, and client-centered techniques to online settings so sessions still focus on skills, emotional processing, and practical steps toward daily improvements.
