Emily Gallagher, LISW
About me
Hello and welcome to BetterHelp, I'm glad you're here! I'm Emily Gallagher LISW-S and I'm licensed in Ohio to provide therapy. I specialize in working with women, couples and parents affected by trauma. As much as you're willing to, we can explore how past trauma is playing out in your current difficulties in relationships, at work and personally. I've worked with many struggling marriages and slowly I've seen some marriages change. A new hope could well up in your marriage and family soon. I also specialize in working with women individually, who are experiencing anxiety. Now more than ever women have been experiencing anxiety symptoms and hopefully together, we can alleviate these symptoms.
I am married and have four school aged children. I've been working with women, couples and parents for 18 years.
*PLEASE NOTE I ONLY HAVE DAYTIME AVAILABILITY ON WEDNESDAYS & THURSDAYS FOR VIDEO OR CHATTING SESSIONS. If daytime doesn't work with your schedule please match with another therapist.
I'm hoping you'll like the platform of Betterhelp and you can reach out to me anytime when it's convenient for you and I'll get back to you within 24 hours. I'm looking forward to working together to make life better for you very soon.
