About Emily
Emily frames sessions around each person’s goals. She uses straightforward methods rather than a single fixed approach. That means sessions focus on what is most useful right now, whether that is changing unhelpful thoughts, practicing emotional skills, or naming patterns that keep repeating.
Her background includes undergraduate study in biology and psychology and a master’s degree in counseling and guidance. Over two decades she has worked in many settings, gaining experience with mood disorders, trauma and abuse, addiction, and other life stresses. That variety helps her match tools to real situations.
In sessions she leans on client-centered strategies to listen and reflect, cognitive behavioral techniques to shift thoughts and behaviors, and mindfulness practices to manage intense feelings. She aims to make therapy practical and understandable so people can use what they learn between meetings.
Emily welcomes conversations about goals and what a helpful next step looks like. To begin, a short intake helps identify priorities and shape a plan that fits each person's life.

How these approaches translate to online therapy
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters to each person. Online sessions can recreate this by giving space to speak about concerns, identifying priorities, and shaping a plan that feels relevant. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors affect feelings and teaches practical exercises to try between sessions. That makes it easy to work on specific skills and homework during remote appointments. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people notice and name emotional responses and change unhelpful interaction patterns by practicing new ways of responding.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Emily will collaborate with each person to pick methods that match their goals and daily life. She adjusts techniques over time based on what helps and what does not, so therapy stays practical and focused on real change.
The biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm current session options before booking. In general, remote sessions can make it simpler to fit therapy into a weekday, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and remove travel time. Licensed professionals can use a mix of conversation, guided exercises, and shared homework to keep sessions active and useful.
