More about Emily

  • 4 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

I am a licensed clinical social worker licensed in Colorado and Massachusetts with over 5 years of experience working with youth and their families, fertility issues and women's issues, family conflict, and more. As a social worker, I believe in the core values of social justice, dignity and worth of a person and importance of human relationships, and carry these values with me to every client I have the privilege of sitting with. I have worked with clients with a wide range of ages and concerns, ranging from ages 4-50, and including depression, anxiety, fertility struggles, grief and loss, adoption, family of origin issues, career concerns and more.

My therapy style is warm, dynamic and open. I believe in holding space for your growth and potential to unfold, and in treating every human I work with with the utmost respect. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, client centered modalities, psychodynamic and systems theories. Every person is unique, and I tailor my practice to best suit your needs.

You've taken the first step by looking into your options for therapy. It takes courage and commitment to get to this point. When you are ready to take the next step, I am here to support and empower you. Your journey is in the process of unfolding and I hope to be able to support you through whatever brings you here.

About online counseling

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
