I focus on helping clients develop meaningful, satisfying lives and relationships. While I tailor treatment to individual needs, my approach is generally collaborative, trauma informed, relational, and committed to social justice. I draw from a range of modalities and theories and bring experience with community mental health, family and couples/relationship therapy, and psychodynamic work.

Welcome! I’m happy you’ve taken that first step and found your way here. I understand it’s not easy to seek out support. Therapy is unique to each person, but some themes I have noticed people are seeking out are an understanding of their emotions, an improved ability to cope and function and feeling more empowered about their individual situations. I also have an interest in and offer years of expertise supporting individuals around issues related to parenting, identity development, LBGTQIA+ identities, relationships, and life transitions.

For over twenty years I have been providing counseling to families where one or more members are experiencing anxiety, depression, family conflict, school avoidance and/or the adolescent’s initial expression is resistance to treatment. My adolescent clientele and their family members range from first time engagers of therapeutic support to those that have had multiple therapists. I have found that most adolescents overtly or secretly welcome support in navigating the delicate dance of dependence and individuation, once the therapist is able to develop an effective rapport.

Hi, I’m Emma. I’ve been the trusted guide for many people looking to make meaningful change in their life, and I’d love to help you too. You can look to me for help discovering what motivates you, what will help you grow, what invisible scripts/stories/narratives have been holding you back and what identity feels best. We will work together on the hard questions, the uncomfortable feelings, the sad. I get it, life can be a bit much sometimes. Stress can come at you from every angle. Identity issues can leave you unsure of who you are. Relationship issues can leave you feeling disconnected and alone.

Although the road to wellness is not linear, there is hope, and change is possible. Depression and anxiety, worry, stress, and feeling overwhelmed- these are all familiar concerns and normal in the human experience. We've all experienced it. Sometimes they can be difficult to manage and that's when talk therapy can be incredibly useful. But most important: I'm glad you're here. Let's build a collaborative therapeutic relationship.

People come to therapy for many different reasons. Maybe you noticed something wasn’t quite working at home or out in the world. You may want better understanding, or to be better understood. Of all possible answers to a refractory problem, therapy is rarely the first, so why consider therapy? Therapy is often the answer when the question is: What can be done when what has been done doesn't work? More pragmatically, the day-to-day work of therapy is an ongoing joint examination of how you live your life and move through the world coupled with experiments in effecting change. It can be surprising how the former informs the latter.

Working together might be a great fit if you are an intelligent, typically motivated person who is ready to make positive changes that can dramatically improve your life. One of my practice mottos is "we can do more than talk about it, but we can talk about it, too." Sometimes it is really important to be heard - to get things off your chest in a warm, supportive context. But beyond that, it is also really beneficial to do things that will naturally result in feeling better. I've made it my specialty to gather as many practical maps, tools, and instructions for exactly what to do... to feel better and better: body, mind and spirit.

Just about everything in life ebbs and flows which at times can leave you feeling exhausted, overwhelmed and defeated. It is important to remember that although life may feel heavy at this moment, it does get better and you don’t have to feel ashamed of your emotions. You are entitled to recognize and accept the individual that you are right now, while also feeling inspired and motivated by the individual you envision yourself to be in the future.

My career has focused on working with individuals, couples, and groups who are dealing with a wide variety of challenges including substance use, anxiety, depression, complex trauma, identity conflicts, and social isolation. The people I resonate best with are those who need help to better understand themselves and want structured support to work on making positive change in their lives. I enjoy supporting people in their own process, and recognize that we all come into this with our own unique story.

Feeling overwhelmed with juggling multiple stressors and different parts of your life? Coping with unexpected life changes is hard. Therapy can be a helpful avenue to help work through stressors and acknowledge parts of self that can be resilient even in times of significant stress. I am active and collaborative in my approach to therapy where I encourage the balance of acceptance and change. We will search for ways to integrate self-compassion while emphasizing action steps for shifting thoughts, behaviors and emotions to help reduce the current intensity of stressors.
