Parenting is a spiritual practice. It’s such a big ask of our minds, bodies, and souls. As a therapist who believes in purposeful transformative change, I see how becoming a parent can open us to some of the biggest changes we’ve ever experienced. Within those changes, there is room for a ton of growth. Here, you’ll find warmth, non-judgment, and a place to develop trust that the universe has your back.
I’m Emily. I’m a mom and psychotherapist with a heart for helping clients through the tough parts of life. These pre-parenting and parenting journeys can be challenging, and walking with clients through those times is something I love to do.
Using a variety of techniques (mostly drawing from ACT, IFS, CBT, narrative therapy, and mindfulness), I help clients find their way through:
- Birth Story Processing
- Anxiety
- Depression
- Panic
- Perinatal loss
- Feeling like they’ve lost who they were
- Feeling overwhelmed, frustrated, and full of anger
I’m a licensed clinical social worker (MSW from University of Maryland School of Social Work) with a Masters degree in Sociology (University of Maryland, Baltimore County). I’m certified in perinatal mental health. Along with completing the below, I am an intuitive Reiki master practitioner. Bringing energy healing into the therapy space is powerful and supportive.
