Hello! I’m so glad you’re here. I’m Emily, a marriage and family therapist committed to helping you navigate life’s challenges and discover a more fulfilling, balanced self. My approach is built on the principles of inclusivity, respect, and empathy. I have specialized in working with individuals from diverse backgrounds, recognizing and honoring the unique experiences and perspectives that each person brings. Whether you are dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or simply seeking personal growth, the intention is to create a safe and welcoming space where you can explore your needs.
I believe in a collaborative approach to therapy, where we work together to identify your goals and develop greater insight into how to manage those more tender parts. My therapeutic style is warm, inviting, and client-centered. I am here to help guide you, provide avenues, and reflect—but you will be the ultimate decision maker of your therapeutic journey.
Starting therapy can be a big step, and I am here to support you every step of the way. My hope is we can create a space collaboratively, where you can feel comfortable, heard, and respected. Together, we can work toward your goals and help you find the inner peace and happiness you deserve.
