More about Emily

  • 10 years' experience
  • Female
  • LICSW

Hi, My name is Emily. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 10 years of experience. I work with adults supporting them through their depression, stress, trauma and anxiety, and how that manifests in day to day life. I also like working with clients on increasing confidence and self esteem by harnessing and building upon their skills and traits. I like to support clients by learning about their story and finding out where they would like to go from here.

Signing up for therapy is brave and I hope we can work together to accomplish your goals.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
