Hi there, I'm Emily!

Feeling stuck or overwhelmed by grief or life changes? You’re not alone. As a Marriage and Family Therapist specializing in grief therapy, my goal is to help you navigate loss, sadness, anxiety, and self-doubt with curiosity and compassion so that you can feel more grounded, connected, and at peace as you move through your healing journey.

My focus

Grieving a loss or feeling stuck in your healing? I work with teens and adults navigating grief, life transitions, and the emotional weight of loss. Together, we’ll create space for your pain, build coping tools, and find ways to reconnect with meaning and hope.

My approach

I draw from evidence-based approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Narrative Therapy to help you navigate grief and emotional challenges. My style is warm and collaborative, focusing on practical tools, reflection, and mindfulness to support healing at your own pace.
