Hi, my name is Emily and I am passionate about helping individuals gain awareness and become more empowered and authentic within their identities. A therapeutic relationship with me is collaborative and respectful in nature. I offer care, support, and empathy for each individual I work with. I believe that being able to have genuine feedback opportunities enhances the healing process. I firmly believe that the client is the expert in their own life!

I have experience working with the LGBTQIA+ community, and as a queer therapist, I bring an extra layer of understanding into counseling sessions. I strive to create a safe and non-judgmental environment that will support sexuality and gender identity exploration, discovery, and identification. I work with individuals that are going through their identity exploration, battling the oppressive systems within society, and trying to find a way to exist in the world. I currently use the informed consent method for writing HRT and readiness letters. My work affirms diversity and fights for equality. I am LGBTQIA+ affirming, anti-racist, sex-positive, kink-positive, and poly-affirming.

In addition to working with the LGBTQIA+ community, I work with individuals dealing with various life stressors including anxiety, depression, relationship problems, low self-esteem, body image concerns, adjustment stressors, trauma, ADHD, and other impacts of oppression. I utilize a social justice and trauma-informed lens within my practice. I look forward to collaborating with you on your journey to authenticity and growth.
