I offer over 13 years of expertise as a licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, licensed art therapist, transpersonal psychotherapist, and addictions specialist.
Whether new to therapy or not, my clients come to me looking to expand their personal growth, gain new mindsets, and learn to navigate those inner, choppy waters that keep them up at night. Being human is messy and I love the messiness of being human. My clients are able to build a new solid ship and stronger sail to navigate the endless seas of possibilities ahead of them. Our journey together can focus on your relationships, family, work, or, just you; but let's always start with you. It can be scary and confusing facing your fears on your own. I am here to be your guiding North Star.

Individuals of all ages are welcome as we use various techniques, such as EMDR, art, sand tray, music, movement, mindfulness, and journaling, to reach your goals.
You are valuable, and your life matters. No matter how you've been hurt, the ability to heal is within you. I work with people who have past experiences of enduring various forms of abuse. Does your past linger in your current life through painful memories, leaving you feeling disconnected from yourself and others with anxiety, insomnia, unhappiness, or low self-esteem? You want to heal from the sting of the events from your past and step into your full potential in every area of your life. Deep down, you know you deserve more and are capable of accomplishing more than the barriers that are holding you back.

I will often bring in short creative stories, diagrams, science, or art to bring a concept to life.
Hello! My name is Emily. I am a licensed couple, family and child therapist. I have a lot of toys and games in my office for my kiddo clients so I always get asked if I see adults too. Yes, I see people of all ages! My background is in human development and the ways in which attachment, traumas, and other significant life experiences shape how our automatic nervous systems respond to environmental triggers, brain structure, and behaviors at each different life cycle stage. Anxiety, anger, mood shifts, loneliness, loss, detachment, fear of trust, chronic illness, people with higher sensitivities- these are some of my top areas.

Accepting new clients! Are you the one that's always thinking about what everyone else needs but when you are struggling you don't get the same support? Do you bury your emotions and keep yourself busy by working overtime to maintain your relationships? Do you feel a tinge of resentment because surely people can't be that selfish? Do you feel isolated, alone and suffer in silence because no one can seem to see past the smile on your face, when there's clearly pain in your eyes? Do you feel like you are too much to handle or have emotional outbursts that seem to come out of nowhere? It's time we tend to your inner child.

Art Therapy

How does art therapy work?

The process of making art allows people to express themselves. Art-making can take many forms, such as painting, collage, or sculpting. The therapist asks questions that the work elicits, such as how the person felt while creating their piece, or if any memories surfaced that they can discuss. The therapist will then work with the patient to process their experience, understand themselves better, and work toward change.

Does art therapy help with trauma?

Art therapy can be a valuable treatment option for those suffering from trauma. Traumatic experiences such as combat, rape, or childhood abuse can be so painful that articulating them can be too scary or painful; creating art allows people to express themselves without words, and tell their story in a different way. The physical nature of creating art can also help people feel rooted in the body, which may benefit those who feel disconnected from their body in the aftermath of trauma.

How long does art therapy last?

The duration of art therapy varies, but a common length for treatment is 10 to 15 weekly sessions. Some people may see improvement in just a few weeks, while others may choose to remain in therapy longer term. Patients should periodically discuss their goals with their therapist to make sure the two are aligned on process and progress.

What are the limitations of art therapy?

Art therapy is helpful for many people, but a limitation is that it doesn’t have as robust an evidence base as other forms of therapy, such as cognitive behavioral therapy or acceptance and commitment therapy. The evidence on art therapy is mixed; some research demonstrates its benefits, while other research suggests that it has little impact on patients.
