Emily has been very effective in our sessions. She has a very calm, caring and friendly manner that makes it easier to get to the heart of an issue. Once the central issue(s) becomes apparent, the strategies (question prompts, journaling, etc) she recommends are so worthwhile.

Emily provides me a safe space and is extremely validating. She tweaks my frame of thinking by asking me probing questions and “guides” me to a conclusion. She gives me space to figure out who I am, all the while gently guiding me through sorting my emotions and thoughts. I appreciate her patience and her attentiveness to details as she always makes me feel safe, heard and seen!!

Emily is a therapist for a therapist! She is smart , engaging, and easy to connect with. She is reflective and empathic. I tend to not stick with counseling and she has been the only one to make me feel like I can come and be understood. Thank you Emily for keeping me on it!

Emily has been great. She has been supportive from the beginning and provided great advice. She’s helped me journal, which has been helpful, and provided worksheets to help me gather insights into my behaviors. Emily has asked good questions to understand my concerns, my background and just generally where I’m coming from. I feel very comfortable with Emily and she is extremely easy to talk to. Emily does not judge, is encouraging and supportive and has really great advice. I am very glad the service matched me with her and could not be happier with the results.

Emily had been a wonderful therapist for me. She takes into consideration all the aspects that I need help with and always allows me the time to speak in depth and process. She is also highly motivating. Thank you Emily for always being understating, compassionate, and for giving me the space to process!
