Hello! My name is Emily, and I enjoy working with individuals and partners looking to grow in self-understanding and strengthen their relationships. I practice depth-oriented, psychodynamic psychotherapy that aims to help us understand and integrate our past experiences so we can feel more fully ourselves. I think therapy is a collaborative and creative process that is best built on the foundation of a strong relationship. Deep therapeutic work takes trust that is built over time. Often, the demands of life crowd our ability to slow down and reflect. Together, we can slow our pace, honor your story, and work toward a sense of peace on the inside.

I hold a certificate in Sexual Health and Sex Therapy from the University of Michigan and feel uniquely qualified to partner with those experiencing barriers to intimacy and connection. This can take a variety of forms, including desire discrepancies, concerns with sexual functioning, communication challenges, a history of sexual trauma, and navigating the impact of religion on sexuality. Whatever brings you to therapy, we can work together toward healing and wholeness. All identities and experiences are welcomed and valued.
