Emily is extremely helpful

Written on Sep 08, 2023 after therapy with Emily for 1 year on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship issues, family conflicts, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, parenting issues, self esteem, anger management, coping with life changes, coaching, and adhd

Emily is an incredible therapist. Not only does she listen well, but she provides tools, resources, articles for learning and gives advice which is exactly what I was looking for. I struggled with finding a supportive therapist who would actually help me make changes until I was matched with Emily. I truly appreciate all of her help

Emily is lovely, I connected with her about my depression and anxiety, specifically looking for DBT, trauma-informed and embodied approaches. She's very affirming and positive, and I've seen her weekly for 5 months. Even though I'm doing great now, I'm still seeing her because with COVID19 lockdowns/stay at home orders etc., I think it's important to have extra support.
