Many of us long for genuine connection and safety in relation to ourselves and to others. Sometimes we want to better understand who we are and where we came from, but it can feel daunting to even know where to begin. Other times, we hope for tools and awareness that can enable us to feel more regulated, as we move forward through challenging moments. Whatever it is that brought you here today, Emily finds it to be an honor to walk alongside you. Through a fostering of safety and trust in the therapeutic relationship, she strives to create healthy settings for change, growth, and healing.

I help women find balance in their life without having to sacrifice the things they love most. My clients feel overwhelmed and tired of feeling like they can’t manage their life. Life feels chaotic making it difficult to be present in each area of their life. My clients are under constant pressure to put on a smile and present themselves like they have it all together.

Whether you're a parent struggling with the balance of it all, a healthcare worker who's overworked and burnt out, or a therapist who feels like they have nothing left to give, I'm here to hold space for you and help you find new ways of coping. My motto in therapy is often, "It's not about feeling better but getting better at feeling". Emotions do not disappear overnight but we can find so many strategies to cope with them to improve our day-to-day life.

I believe that no matter what age you are, most emotional struggles stem from a feeling of disconnection - from self, family and friends, or the world in general. You may feel as if you aren't yourself lately, or as if relationships have become difficult to navigate. Possibly you're having a hard time staying present and engaging in the world around you. If you are seeking therapy for your child or your teen, it may seem as if their behaviors or reactions don't match up to the situation they are in. Feeling seen, heard, and understood in therapy can allow adults and children to build or repair connections to self and others.

Often life events and personal stress can lead us to a point of pain, feeling that we have no control over the course of our lives or meaningful ways to cope. I would love to assist you with identifying personal strengths that will increase your ability to negotiate difficult emotions, stressors and life events. I will encourage you to grow, develop resilience and explore new ways of experiencing the world with a curious, thoughtful mindset. This curiosity leads to an increasing awareness of yourself, your needs and solutions for challenging issues.

Whatever struggle is motivating you to start counseling, something inside is knocking. The knock may be feeling depressed, anxious, angry, or overwhelmed. It may be feeling disconnected in relationships and from what is meaningful in your life, a sense of emptiness or lack of purpose. It may be unresolved trauma. To answer that knock means to turn inward, which can be challenging and uncomfortable at times, yet I whole-heartedly believe the life you seek is patiently waiting! The pain you are experiencing is actually an invitation for healing and growth. Answer the knock. When things break down, breakthroughs happen.

To the rest of the world, you're perfectly put together. But on the inside, you feel like a tangled mess. As women, we carry the weight of societal expectations, past traumas, and the pressures of daily life at the expense of our mind, body, and spirit. You've been playing the part of superwoman for so long now that the feelings of overwhelm, anxiety, and exhaustion have become your new normal. Imagine if you discovered your own little corner of the world where you could take off the cape for a while, untangle the mess, and reclaim your joy.
