Hi, I’m Emily! I’m glad that you found my website. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with a passion for supporting children, adolescents, and young adults through some of life’s most challenging moments. In addition to my clinical work in private practice, I serve as a school therapist, supporting students with Individualized Education Plans as they navigate emotional, behavioral, and social challenges within the school setting. For 13 years, I worked in hospitals as a Certified Child Life Specialist, walking alongside children and families as they navigated chronic illness, medical trauma, and end-of-life experiences.

I specialize in helping grieving children, teens, and young adults make sense of loss in developmentally appropriate ways, while offering a safe space where their emotions—big, confusing, and often unspoken—are welcomed without judgment. My experiences with families have deeply shaped who I am as a person. I believe that children, teens, and young adults need a space to process their own grief in their unique ways.

I strive to create a warm, relational environment where people feel seen, valued, and understood. I believe healing happens through relationship, and I meet each client with curiosity, empathy, and respect for their unique story. I'd love an opportunity to connect to see if I'm a good fit.
