I’ve had such a positive experience here, and honestly, I wasn’t expecting it. I went in thinking it might be a waste of time, but it was absolutely worth it. I’m so glad I gave it a chance and I’ll definitely be back!

I’m here to help you navigate what’s hard, celebrate what’s working, and discover what’s possible. Drawing from my own experience as a student-athlete, my mission is to help young adults and LGBTQ+ clients navigate life’s challenges with empathy and compassion.
Education: Master of Mental Health Counseling, Iona University
Language: English
As a former student-athlete, I understand how tough it can be to balance everything, whether it is school, sports or just life in general. That’s why I’m passionate about supporting young adults and the LGBTQ+ community who are dealing with anxiety, depression, or going through major life transitions. Being an athlete showed me how important it is to have a good support system, and I want to be that supportive presence for my clients as they work through their own challenges. I aim to create a nonjudgmental space where you feel seen, heard, and understood.

Emma is very attentive and really listens. We're still in the early stages of working together and she has always made me feel comfortable as we ease into things. She asks questions that make me feel seen and has already put a lot of effort into getting to know me.

There was a time where I questioned myself for even going to therapy. I felt like I should’ve been able to handle things on my own, and it made me doubt my own judgment. But working with Emma changed that perspective completely. She helped me see beyond my own thoughts and self-doubt, and showed me that seeking support is actually a strength. That shift has meant everything to me.

Emma is honestly just a really chill, cool person. Talking with her feels natural, like having a genuine one-on-one conversation rather than anything forced. For once, I was able to step outside of myself and not be stuck in my own thoughts

I use a blend of evidence-based practices like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to help clients better understand and manage their thoughts and emotions. Using expressive and mindfulness-based practices, we will tap into your creativity, self-expression, and find your own inner calm.
My mission as a therapist is to meet each person with empathy and compassion, making sure to support their unique story while helping them discover their inner strength and potential. I’m here to help you navigate what’s hard, celebrate what’s working, and discover what’s possible. I want therapy to feel like a safe, welcoming space where you can be yourself and figure things out at your own pace. Therapy with me is a team effort and you're never alone in the process.
