Background and approach
Her approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, along with Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused techniques. These methods are used to address worry, low self-esteem, relationship strain, career stress, and the effects of trauma and abuse. Emily has nine years of experience in community settings and also serves as a clinical supervisor.
She has worked with people facing depression, anxiety, compassion fatigue, parenting challenges, eating concerns, ADHD, and issues around control or codependency. Her background includes helping individuals navigate midlife shifts, career decisions, and isolation. Faith is important to her, and she is open to integrating faith-based perspectives when a client requests that.
She stays focused on practical steps and the strengths a person already has, celebrating small wins along the way.
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice and accept difficult thoughts while focusing on steps that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, life transitions, and finding purpose. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact and uses practical exercises to reduce worry and depressive patterns.Choosing an approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. Together they decide which techniques to try first and adjust them as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation; phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat or text sessions can be used for shorter check-ins, ongoing encouragement, or when written reflection feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy schedule and maintain regular contact with a licensed professional.
