Hi, I’m Emma (they/them) and my goal as a therapist is to help you be able to use curiosity as a tool to look inward and explore how your patterns are serving you today. 

 

As people, we naturally develop ideas of how life “should” look, including our relationships, our ability to navigate systems, and even our own mental health symptoms, (i.e. “I should be past this by now,” or “I should be more present during sex.”) I want us to find ways of moving through the world that feel right to you. 

 

I prioritize fostering a personal connection with my clients, and humor is welcome in the therapy space. Our sessions may involve slowing down and focusing on the body, mindfully noticing different thought patterns, or beginning to develop understanding of various parts of ourselves and what they have to offer. Two modalities I pull most from are Internal Family Systems (also known as Parts Work) and Acceptance and Commitment therapy. These modalities both aim to help us recognize and accept our feelings, as well as foster a mind-body connection.

 

I received my Master’s of Social Work from Washington University in St. Louis with specialties in clinical mental health and sexual health and education. My experience as a therapist has been with those who have experienced anxiety, depression, sexual abuse, and complex trauma. 

 

Outside of my work as a therapist, I am often biking around town, playing guitar, or completing a DIY project. I have been described by clients as having a good balance between offering challenges and compassion. 

 

I look forward to hearing from you!

“We have been raised to fear the yes
within ourselves, our deepest cravings.
For the demands of our released expectations
lead us inevitably into actions
which will help bring our lives
into accordance with our needs,
our knowledge, our desires.”

― Audre Lorde, 
Uses of the Erotic: The Erotic as Power
