About Emily
She draws on several counseling methods to match what each person needs. Sessions are shaped around immediate problems and longer term goals. Emily keeps language simple and focuses on concrete steps people can try between meetings.
Before becoming a counselor she completed undergraduate study in biology and psychology, then earned a master’s degree in counseling and guidance. Over two decades she has worked in many settings, gaining experience with addiction, depression, trauma and abuse, and grief among other concerns.
Emily describes her style as eclectic. That means she adapts tools and techniques rather than following a single method. Clients can expect an individualized plan, with practical strategies and a conversational, down-to-earth tone.
She also supports people with parenting and career questions, ADHD, caregiver stress, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem. If you want help sorting priorities, managing overwhelm, or making steady changes, she aims to offer clear steps and patient support.

Approaches that guide online sessions
Emily often draws on client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and mindfulness techniques. Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening and building a trusting relationship so clients feel understood and heard; it helps people clarify what matters most to them. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and offers practical skills to change unhelpful patterns; it is useful for anxiety, stress, and low mood. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple awareness practices to manage racing thoughts and physical tension and to improve focus during stressful moments.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Emily will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, preferences, and the problem at hand. That collaborative process may mean trying different tools and checking in on what is helpful as therapy progresses.
Session logistics should be confirmed before booking because the biography does not list specific formats. Ask about the available online formats when you schedule. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into busy days, allow shorter check-ins between work commitments, or make it possible to meet without travel. Emily aims to use approaches that translate to remote conversations and to suggest exercises you can practice between meetings.
