More about Emily
- 6 years' experience
- Female
- LICSW
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who has experience working with a wide range of individuals, groups, and families. I have worked with children, adolescents and adults who are navigating their way through challenges such as depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, relationship conflict and parenting concerns as well as many other daily struggles. I utilize several modalities in my practice including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Seven Challenges, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Narrative Therapy in my practice. I believe every person has the ability to improve themselves and their lives, sometimes they just need a little help.

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.
