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.

You may be feeling overwhelmed by stress and anxiety - whether it’s from external demands or internal struggles. Maybe it's social anxiety, "a life transition," or healing from trauma. Or maybe it's something more general, like you want to feel more "in control" of your emotions…and your life. I can help. Together, we’ll uncover the roots of your challenges, empowering you to move forward - with skill and confidence. I use “treatments that work” (CBT, DBT, mindfulness, etc). But we’ll find what works for YOU. Lastly, I don’t just want you to just “feel better.” I want you to live your best life. I'm looking forward to meeting you!

I use techniques that help you understand different parts of yourself and how your body responds to stress.
Confidence, meaningful relationships, and a sense of purpose are fundamental to well-being. The journey toward these elements can be limited by depression, anxiety, trauma, and difficult life transitions. In my thirteen years of practice, I have found that healing rarely happens in a vacuum. Therefore, my approach focuses on creating an authentic and connected space where we can delve into your experiences, thoughts, and emotions, empowering you to chart your unique path forward.

This includes body image issues, low self-confidence, lack of fitness, anxiety, weight struggles, over/under/dysregulated eating, managing chronic stress, lack of focus or direction, and relationship troubles.
I work with men who are feeling "off their game" and want to fulfill their personal and professional potential. Stuck in unhealthy habits? Repeating self-destructive patterns? Are you undermining your health and happiness? I give you accountability and support to make a change in how you take care of yourself. Stop beating yourself up. Start getting control of what really matters.
