About me

I am a licensed clinical social worker licensed in Colorado and Massachusetts with over 5 years of experience working with youth and their families, fertility issues and women's issues, family conflict, and more. As a social worker, I believe in the core values of social justice, dignity and worth of a person and importance of human relationships, and carry these values with me to every client I have the privilege of sitting with. I have worked with clients with a wide range of ages and concerns, ranging from ages 4-50, and including depression, anxiety, fertility struggles, grief and loss, adoption, family of origin issues, career concerns and more.

My therapy style is warm, dynamic and open. I believe in holding space for your growth and potential to unfold, and in treating every human I work with with the utmost respect. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, client centered modalities, psychodynamic and systems theories. Every person is unique, and I tailor my practice to best suit your needs.

You've taken the first step by looking into your options for therapy. It takes courage and commitment to get to this point. When you are ready to take the next step, I am here to support and empower you. Your journey is in the process of unfolding and I hope to be able to support you through whatever brings you here.

She is so kind and informative and very helpful in helping you get through whatever it is you may be going through.

Emily Scott has been so helpful to me after a long-term relationship ended, she gave me the tools to cope and to understand that this is not the end and that everything will be ok. She has listened to me and has given me some context as to why things sometimes work out the way that they do.
