Hi, I’m Emily.
I’m a licensed clinical social worker (LICSW) based in Washington State, dedicated to supporting individuals and families in the mental health space. Having grown up in Portland, OR, I moved across the country in pursuit of my graduate studies, before returning to the PNW in 2020. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, traveling, photography, and cooking.
My journey led me to New Jersey where I completed a Master of Divinity (MDiv) at Princeton Theological Seminary and a Master of Social Work (MSW) at Rutgers University. When I wasn’t in class, I regularly met with detainees at the nearby immigration detention center. During graduate school, I interned as an addiction counselor in Central, New Jersey, then became employed as a men’s trauma therapist in South Jersey.
Since returning to the Pacific Northwest, I’ve had the privilege of working with adolescents in both clinical and school settings, including at an eating disorder treatment center and as a school counselor. These experiences have deepened my commitment to helping clients navigate complex mental health challenges.
Today, I offer therapy for adults, teens, and families dealing with issues such as:
Anxiety and panic
Body image distress and eating disorders
Trauma and PTSD
Religious trauma and spiritual deconstruction
Life transitions and identity exploration
Burnout and stress management
Parenting support and coaching
Low self-esteem and depression
As a therapist, my goal is to create a space where you feel seen and understood. Whether you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or uncertain, I’m here to walk alongside you as you rediscover your strengths, build confidence, and find hope to keep moving forward.
