I’ve been having sessions with Emily for six weeks - and I’m already in a much better head space. Besides being a great listener, she’s been able to give me a lot of tools and coping mechanisms to deal with my day to day stressors. She is down to earth, yet professional. Warm and super intelligent. I chose her based on her rave reviews and I’m positive I made the right choice :) she is wonderful. thank you Emily!!

I felt safe and secure enough to open up on Day 1! That’s huge, and a big reason was because of Emily’s active listening skills as well as empathy. I felt seen. I felt heard.

My therapeutic style is eclectic, strengths-based, and grounded in evidence-based practices, including CBT, Mindfulness, and Motivational Interviewing, with a profound understanding that there is no substitute for empathy. I often bring my passions for art and movement into sessions, integrating creative projects and the mind-body connection to help clients achieve their goals.
I hold a Master's in Social Work from New York University, which has equipped me with a strong foundation to provide compassionate and effective care.
