My expertise includes psychiatric assessments, crisis intervention, and psychoeducation, integrated with talk therapy. I draw from ACT, DBT, relational, and narrative therapy techniques, continually expanding my knowledge to better support my clientsI offer individual therapy both in person and virtually, often accompanied by my golden retriever, Gretchen. Clients turn to me for help navigating conflicts, life transitions, and loss. I also conduct mental health assessments, providing clinical impressions and treatment recommendations to primary care providers when needed. My goal is to create a safe, inclusive, and non-judgmental space where individuals can regain balance in their lives.

As a Psychiatric Nurse, I am dedicated to promoting, restoring, and maintaining mental health through collaborative care. Together, we will work towards meaningful goals, process trauma, and enhance emotional regulation, stress reduction, mindfulness, and self-reflection. Contact me today to schedule an appointment! Emily & Gretchen can be found at Birch Monday-Thursday 8am-3pm. If this availability does not work, please reach out directly and we will accommodate as best as we can.
