Background and approach

She blends skills that help with everyday stress and tools for managing anxiety symptoms. Her practice grew from nearly three decades of work in social services and mental health. Over 28 years she has supported people facing parenting challenges, adoption and foster care issues, autism and intellectual disability concerns, and caregiver stress.

That experience informs how she helps people sort priorities and make decisions. Emily also works with people dealing with abandonment, commitment or communication problems, feelings of emptiness or isolation, and questions about life purpose. She aims to create a respectful space where people feel heard and can set practical goals.

Sessions tend to be goal-directed and tailored to each person's situation. Emily will work with you to build a plan that fits your needs and your schedule. She encourages small, steady steps toward clearer relationships and greater confidence.

How Emily’s approaches work online

Emily uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thinking patterns and try small behavioral changes. CBT is useful for managing anxiety, shifting negative self-talk, and building concrete coping skills.

She also draws on Solution-Focused Therapy to set clear, short-term goals and identify what is already working. That approach centers on practical steps and small wins you can apply between sessions to move toward your goals.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Emily will talk with you about your needs, goals, and preferences and then recommend methods that fit. This is a collaborative process where you shape the plan and she offers tools and feedback.

Online sessions include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to offer flexibility. Video is good for face-to-face connection, phone works when bandwidth is limited, and messaging suits quick check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around parenting, work, and busy days.
